Whilst concatenating my expertise in previous roles, I am looking to work as a software developer in a fast paced, creative environment, where people share ideas and I can learn from others.

- Park PongThis was a collaborative project, completed in a group of four. We applied our knowledge of MongoDB & Express to create a full stack website. It was also the first opportunity to work in a large group, utilising the benefits of Git-Hub and version control.

- F1 Circuit MapperThis was a two day pair project, where we were tasked with picking an existing API and implementing it into our own website.

The most challenging part of the project was implementing the MapGL

My team and I decided to create a cashless, bartering e-commerce website. We felt that the system of swapping items was an interesting concept to tackle in an SQL architecture. I focused my time on creating the relationships between the different backend models. I utilised the self referential capabilities of a

Education
CertificateGeneral Assembly
- London, United Kingdom
The course focused on the fundamentals of web based software development, with the goal of creating a personalised portfolio of work. I started by learning the rudiments of JavaScript, HTML and CSS, eventually moving on to learn about the backend. By the end of the course, I was able to create full-stack web applications using both MERN and Python/SQL stacks. During the course, I utilised both collaborative and solo work environments, with daily lectures, tasks and workshops.
I completed four projects whilst studying at GA:
