About

I have always had an interest in computers - in what they can do and the possibilities that they offer. Whilst I had dabbled with coding throughout the years it was only in 2020 that I decided to take the plunge, at which point I absolutely loved it. The more I delved into coding the more I became fascinated with the way problems could be solved and lives made better by it.

My first foray into programming was just before the pandemic started, I had watched a 4.5 hour video on python for beginners, after which I clicked that it was something I wanted to do full time. From there I read a number of books like “Automate the boring stuff” and “Python Crash Course”.

Eventually I started building my own projects, googling anything I was uncertain about and posting on forums for best practice. In my free time I enjoy playing video games such as Warframe, watching or reading sci-fi stories, and watching documentaries or comedy shows on Netflix.
