About Me
As somebody who graduated from university and had no idea what I wanted to do, I ended up building up my career trying a vast amount of things. After the pandemic hit and my current role was on hold, I decided to make a change and pursue my passion of technology. It was always something I wanted to do, as I'm constantly building and creating things with tech. I loved studying it and was always my friends and family's go-to tech guru. With this window of opportunity, I decided to pursue my passion and enrolled myself onto a full-stack web development course. School of Code is the built up the core essence of of my coding skills, spending 16 weeks building full-stack applications. I love the feeling of finally figuring out a solution to a problem and that bootcamp allowed me to do that so many times. My core stack is React, Next.js, Node.js, and SQL. I am also familiar with TypeScript and Tailwind. I am always looking to learn new technologies. I am currently looking for a full-time position as a software developer.
When I'm not coding, I still using technology someway whether that's competitive gaming, building PC's (or fixing them). I also enjoy being outdoors as much as possible and exploring the world, whether it's trekking in the UK battling against the elements or exploring a new country I'm all for it. I am currently learning about how I can better myself from a junior developer to the next level, it's going to be a journey to senior and I'm looking forward to it! . I've also had a guitar lying around as a hobby that I'm trying to pick up and play when I eventually find the time.
