About Me

Spending my last £2000 on career coaching after years of feeling unfulfilled and unchallenged at work, I was left with the gut-wrenching belief that finding a motivating, enjoyable career was out of reach for me. However, I was certain that I wanted a career that required a strong element of problem-solving in it.

Frustrated with my situation, I decided to enrol on a computer science course (CS50x from Harvard). Working on the second problem set, I remember feeling alive and inspired as I tried to solve an equation for printing a series of hash symbols in C. I hadn’t felt this feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment for a long time and I knew from then on that I had made the right choice.

Since then, I have been learning different aspects of software development, implementing them in projects. Throughout this process, I have been dealing with self-doubt and frustration but this has been outweighed by the reward and joy from persevering through.

Going through this challenging process I am confident in my abilities to learn, adapt and use my skills to help myself and others. I am sure this will make me a strong, positive contributor to any team that I am on.

I flourish in independent environments built on trust. Accountable, respectful, and reliable – I firmly believe the way you treat others reflects on yourself.

Energised by tasks involving planning, co-ordination and strong problem-solving aspects. I find communicating complex concepts rewarding, and helps clarify my understanding whilst challenging me with different viewpoints.

I am curious about the intersection of technology with areas such as education, mental health, and philosophy.
