about

I'm a Computer Science student at Northumbria University, starting the BSc (Hons) in September after finishing my Foundation Year. Before that I worked in retail for a few years before deciding to go to university.

I started learning to code in summer 2025 with HTML, CSS, and Git, then Python and JavaScript through my Foundation Year. Right now I'm working through JavaScript Certificate on freeCodeCamp, with plans of tackling react afterwards.

Longer term, the goal is a placement year during my BSc, and eventually start my career in software development. Hobbies: skateboarding, guitar, music production, and building/breaking my own PC.
