A junior full stack engineer with experience of working in operational roles in several startups. Where I delivered products as part of cross-business agile teams which led to my deep fascination world of software development.I have found that software engineering matches my passions of working together with others to build products that solve people's problems. Such as when I co-founded the loneliness charity Morsel. As well as provides an incredible learning environment similar to that of my degree where I solved logical problems in philosophy and composed and analysed data sets in Economics. I am interested in working across the software stack with my current areas of focus being front-end accessibility, devOps and building decentralised applications.
