I am a graduate of CodeClan's 16 week Professional Software Development course.
The course developed skills in using languages and software including Ruby, Java, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, React, macOS Terminal, Git, GitHub, Atom, Slack, MiniTest, Pry, SQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Sinatra, Spark, Node.js, npm, Express, Webpack, Apache Velocity, Intellij IDEA, Gradle and Hibernate ORM.
Currently I am further developing my skills and knowledge, focussing on JavaScript (please see my portfolio), and am keen to consider employment opportunities in software, data or administration.
I have a degree in Actuarial Mathematics and Statistics from Heriot-Watt University. After 12 years examining legal deeds and plotting title plans for Registers of Scotland, I sought a change of direction and am keen to more actively use my problem-solving abilities, to learn new skills, and to further pursue interests including programming and data.
I enjoy helping children learn to code, both at home and as a CoderDojo volunteer.
