Eager to pivot into the tech industry, I am an adaptable problem solver with a passion for understanding complex systems. My background has shaped me into a versatile professional, equipped with a unique skill set ideal for tech-oriented roles. I'm fascinated by how software functions and am driven to leverage it to simplify everyday tasks. Skilled at identifying issues and transforming them into actionable solutions, I prioritize user experience. With proven leadership and communication skills, honed from prior customer service and team management roles, I am prepared to contribute to software engineering. Committed to continuous learning, I am excited to bring my capabilities to a new career in the tech industry.

After graduating from the rigorous Makers Academy Software Engineering Bootcamp, my programming acumen has significantly grown, honing concepts such as Test-Driven Development (TDD), Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), pair programming, and agile methodologies.

• Project Highlight: A project I initiated and completed is 'Solved,' a treasure-hunting game designed for tourists exploring London. Technologies employed included Node.js, Express, MongoDB, and React Native. The project also allowed me to practice utilising RESTful APIs and Jest for unit testing.
• Test-Driven Development: I apply TDD practices in my problem-solving approach, habitually writing automated tests before proceeding with coding. this helps me write clean code that works.
• Lifelong Learner: I am a resilient and self-motivated person who enjoys continuous learning to improve my tech skills. During the largely self-driven course, I cultivated a strong foundation in self-discipline and resourcefulness, vital assets in the ever-evolving tech landscape.
• Strategic Coding: My proficiency in SOLID and OOP principles informs my coding practice, resulting in cleaner, easily maintainable software. Strategic thinking facilitates effective planning and prioritization, ensuring the timely delivery of superior software solutions.
• Agile Development: A solid grounding in agile development principles underscores my ability to thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments. My experience spans numerous engineering projects, focusing on iterative value delivery to end-users. I also enjoy taking part in agile rituals, like daily stand-ups and retros.
• Software Design: I have designed and built over 20 web applications, gaining substantial hands-on experience with Ruby and JavaScript.
• Agile Collaboration: I have effectively collaborated within agile teams, embodying eXtreme Programming (XP) values, and mastering the nuances of pair programming, Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), and Git workflows
