My Stats (as of 28 July 2021)
About Me
I am a 19-year-old computer scientist currently taking a year out of education to explore the world and see what life in the technology industry is all about!
Next year I will be studying my Master’s of Computer Science at the University of Bath in the United Kingdom.
I graduated from secondary school with straight A*'s in GCSE and A Levels in Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics.
I’m part of the UK Sea Cadet Corps, where I volunteer to instruct kids on how to sail, and introduce them to the naval way of life in line with Royal Navy traditions.
My Programming Experience
I’ve been programming on Roblox since I was 13 years old!
I was lucky enough to make programming my full-time job in January 2021, before I had even gone to university! I was making games for some top brands in the world, including Nickelodeon, LOL Surprise and GoNoodle to list just a few!
This brought me invaluable experience into the tools, workflow and mindset necessary to deploy software on a professional level - including continuous integration, environment deployments and proficiency in version control systems (Git more specifically).
I like to think I have a passion for inventing innovate modules, tools and games around the Roblox platform to help bring studios closer to industry leading levels of technology. One such example is creating a Docker Image to run unit tests, lint (using Selene linter) and deploy repository based projects from any version control system, even locally!
