I am a Junior but well practised Software Developer. I have a great passion for learning, especially in topics oriented around Software Development, Networks and Backend Engineering. I am constantly striving to learn more and more whilst pushing myself to explore new technologies!


Experience

Car Valeter

CSM Valeting

This job involved ensuring customer satisfaction was very high! Every car had to be cleaned maticulously to ensure the highest standard was achieved. We often spent a lot of our time in commercial workspace environments and so remaining profesional was key to the service we provided. I enjoyed working here a lot becuase of both the independent and teamworking aspects. On many occasions we would find ourselves working on a car in a group so communication was key to ensure that no part was missed nor any unecessary work was undetaken!

Site Maintenance

Ashford Self Storage

Working at Ashford Self Storage was my first taste of working in the real world. I spend a lot of time interacting with the customers throughout the day whilst also maintaining the cleanliness and presentability of the site. I was in charge of making sure the loading bay was clear and safe to use in addition to landscaping out the front and sides of the warehouse building!

Projects

snexo.co.uk

Snexo

This project is a templated website designed for a client that needed a platform to advertise his clearance services. The website is made using Bootstrap and JQuery along with PHP for some of the backend features. I am hosting the site along with its E-Mail accounts on my own web and mail servers which guarantees a near 100% uptime!

Personalised Spotify Client

Spotify Client

This one is more of a personal project that allows me to learn more about and make use of a documented API. I will be staging the App as a website so that it can easily be accessed. I will also be trying to make a divide between the use of server and client side processing due to the limited resources I have available!

Flight Simulator EFB

A-Level Project

Capitalize on low hanging fruit to identify a ballpark value added activity to beta test. Override the digital divide with additional clickthroughs from DevOps. Nanotechnology immersion along the information highway will close the loop on focusing solely on the bottom line.

Interests

Apart from software development, I also enjoy ethical hacking and pentesting. I am still very new to the skill but it is something I enjoy learning about. I will often spend my evenings researching exploits and how they work. This knowledge can then be applied to my own setups and servers to ensure they are safe and secure!

On a nice day I will often find myself exploring outside, whether it be through a forest walk or a run with friends. Who doesn't love a bit of fresh air!
