//Personal profile

I am currently a student studying Computer Science at Teesside University with a predicted 1st class degree. I have industry experience in the form of a placement year working as a software developer at Accenture. My University modules have helped me develop strong problem solving skills as well as gaining significant technical experience with different software and technologies. My previous work experience has equipped me with an excellent attention to detail along with great organisational skills.

//Skills and technologies

I've worked on various projects both at University and in industry. I am always looking to expand my existing skill set which includes some of the following technologies:

  • C#
  • Java
  • SQL
  • HTML
  • CSS
  • UIPath
  • Clojure
  • NetLogo
  • Git
  • Machine Learning
  • Neural Networks
  • Python

  • I've worked on projects using:

  • Visual Studio
  • Android Studio
  • Xcode
  • UiPath Studio
  • //Education

    I studied for my A-Levels in graphic design and double award IT at Queen Elizabeth sixth form collage from 2013 to 2015. I then moved to Teesside University to study Computer Science with a placement year from 2015 to 2019.

    //Employment

    June 2017 – August 2018: Accenture
    Software Developer

    For my placement year at University I joined Accenture as a software developer. Upon joining I completed many kinds of training in both technical development skills and soft skills. I spent my placement within an award-winning team specialising in robotic process automation for the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). During my time on this team, I have demonstrated my skills working in an agile development environment and have successfully taken multiple RPA products to production in addition to a machine learning solution to help increase success rates of one process from 45% to 90% and over. The technology I worked with on a regular basis included C# and VB.NET. I also used Python, C++ and HTML/CSS in other projects throughout the year.


    August 2016 - September 2016: North Yorkshire County Council
    IT Undergraduate Placement

    I joined North Yorkshire County Council on a 6-week internship as part of their 2020 program. There, I was tasked with working as part of a team to set up new machines for employees at NYCC. As part of this process I attended rollout sessions where I was tasked with handing out the new equipment to the end user and explaining to the user how to use the equipment effectively. I was also tasked with fixing hardware issues and taking a company car to deliver new equipment to external offices.


    June 2011 – June 2015: Leyburn Bikes
    Shop Keeper and Cycle Mechanic

    Working at Leyburn Bikes provided me with a variety of responsibilities, including: opening and closing the premises. As a contrast to my work at the Bolton Arms and Three Horseshoes, much of my time at Leyburn bikes was spent working independently, carrying out tasks such as equipping customers with specialist information regarding bicycle components and complete cycles to purchase, and working on customers’ cycles including full services to brake pad replacements.
