Summary

Since finishing studying at Makers Academy, an intensive developer bootcamp, I have been working using C# and Azure at a London based charity. I have a passion for technology, tinkering with robotics and microcontrollers to see how things fit together. In my spare time I have created wearables with LEDs and sensors coding different light patterns to the environment.

Skills

Communication

In my previous positions, good communication skills were vital. A large part of my job was working with children and adults to teach new concepts. I needed to make sure that the subject matter was presented clearly and that by the end of the session everything had been understood. While at Makers Academy I further developed this skill through the group projects and pair programming.

Teamwork

Working as part of a team I am comfortable being in a leadership position as well as taking direction. In my previous position I managed a small team of teachers ensuring that each school had a member of staff to teach the clubs that I was responsible for. In my final project at Makers I facilitated morning standups as well as evening retros daily to ensure that we were on track with our objectives to deliver the final project. In our other group projects, I followed direction given by other group members ensuring to communicate what my pair partner and I had accomplished each day.
