I am currently enrolled at Makers Academy (London), one of the most prestigious coding bootcamps in Europe. With a rigorous curriculum and a focus on hands-on, project-based learning, Makers Academy offers an unparalleled educational experience that prepares students for the challenges of the tech industry.
My brother who is a senior dev sparked my passion for coding and has been invaluable during my journey to become a developer. With his mentorship and my own self-directed learning, I have gained foundational knowledge in several programming languages.

Born into a family of career musicians and it being a great passion of mine, I chose to focus on Music in lieu of a university education. As a natural problem solver and analytical thinker, I was strongly drawn to software engineering when one of my brothers became a data engineer.
I am a natural problem solver and I have an ability to grasp abstract concepts and complex systems. The prospect of being able to apply these skills daily in a career is exciting.
I possess strong leadership, team management, organizational, and communication skills, along with a keen sense of empathy. These skills have been honed through my extensive experience in the hospitality industry, including managing a cafe in a new business. They are highly transferable to the tech industry, where effective collaboration and communication are essential for success.

My passions include art and music, sports, complex biological systems such as neurobiology and endocrinology, philosophy, and travel. I find it fascinating investigating the intersections between these fields.
