With over six years experience working with communications systems, I have an enthusiastic and determined approach to learning, proven through my continued studies with the Open University. Since starting my degree in IT & Computing I have begun to develop a greater theoretical understanding to complement my practical experience. I am also actively pursuing additional opportunities to further develop my knowledge through extracurricular courses and qualifications. My time in the military has enabled me to develop a well-rounded transferable skill set. I am able to work well both independently and in a team, where I am confident taking on a leadership role. I work well under pressure and am able to use my own initiative when faced with new challenges.
