01 / ABOUT
A practical mind.
An expanding horizon.
Electrical installation is my career focus. Software adds another way to think, build and solve problems.
I’m currently studying a Level 2 Electrical Installation Diploma through an evening course, developing my knowledge of electrical principles, circuits and safety. My goal is to become a skilled electrician through supervised practical experience.
My earlier freelance programming projects were primarily in Python. I continue to study computer science and C independently, with an interest in embedded systems, electronics and connected devices.
