ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm a Computer Science student entering my final year at The University of Manchester. My experience ranges from working as a Mathematics and Computer Science tutor to completing a 14 month placement as a Junior Software Developer.

Turning ideas into working software and seeing them develop into fully functional projects and solutions is what interests me most. I am always looking for ways to refine and optimise projects, whether that means improving efficiency, adding new features, or reducing execution time. This iterative process of taking an initial idea, developing a solution, and continuously refining it is what ultimately inspired me to become a software developer.

I've worked on a range of projects throughout university, hackathons, and in my own time. While I can't share them all here, I've highlighted some of the projects I've gained the most from, along with links to my GitHub. This is by no means a fixed portfolio and will update whenever I make new projects!
