I'm a full stack developer with an Msc in Computing from Cardiff University. I've been in the industry since 2021 and am currently working as a Python developer.
In my day-to-day development, I work extensively with Python, Django, FastAPI, JavaScript, Git, HTML, CSS, and SCSS. I also have experience with Golang, React.js, Vue.js, and Docker, and hold an AWS Developer Certification. I’m always eager to expand my skill set and take on new languages and technologies to stay current and versatile.
Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with both large government clients and agile startups. Currently, I develop in-house software for my company, focused on enhancing business operations and driving efficiency.
In my spare time Im always reading or have a creative project on the go. Be it crocheting, painting, candle-making, furniture upcycling or whatever else- if its crafty, i've probably attempted it!
While exploring HTMX, I developed a dynamic, single-page Django application that
integrates real-time weather data.
The app leverages HTMX for seamless API calls, allowing users to quickly
retrieve current weather conditions for any city they enter.
This project helped deepen my understanding of
HTMX’s capabilities for creating responsive, interactive applications within Django.
While working with FastAPI, I developed The Secret Library — a single-page book
tracking application that allows users to manage and review books they’ve read.
Leveraging FastAPI’s performance and asynchronous capabilities, the app provides a smooth user experience,
enabling users to add, update, and track their books along with metadata like authors, ratings, and completion dates.
This project has deepened my understanding of FastAPI’s capabilities for building responsive, efficient
APIs and taught me best practices for handling authentication, CRUD operations, and database integration.
