I'm a junior developer and a biochemistry graduate from the University of Southampton. I have a professional approach to work and study and I am eager to develop my skills and career. Strong performer as part of a team and on my own as demonstrated in my approach to my semi-professional sporting journey. I'm seeking a career as a developer as I have always been truly intrigued by how different types of applications can be created, and i believe there’s real power in being able to build something from scratch using code. Having now scratched the surface of how web/mobile applications can be developed i have been well and truly sucked in to the trials and tribulations of a developer, as well as the sweet satisfaction of your code running successfully! And i wish to continue this on in my career!

During university, in my third year research project i was tasked with finding a potential treatment for Urinary tract infections (UTI'S). And through my rigorous research i was able to come up with a theoretical solution that involved restricting the bacteria's source of food so that it could no longer replicate, which demonstrated my ability to solve a complex problem thorough persistance and creative thinking. I also enjoy attempting the challenging code kata's on codewars and i have managed to work my way up to rank 5 kyo as i attempt more challenging kata's

I establish my role within a team very quickly and try to give my teammates clear and consise insturctions and feedback.
