About Me
Currently I am an Undergraduate at the University of Hull studying computer science. Whilst studying at University I have also worked at Currys in Bridlington since September 2016, within store I am a Apple Master and a Hybrid Colleague.
My objectives are to advance my career within the technology sector. I am eager to lend my existing skills learnt from years of education to colleagues and customers alike while also learning new skills that are not taught. I am incredibly passionate about technology. I have been repairing, building and maintaining Apple Mac’s and Windows PC’s from a very young age I worked for a short time as a Systems Specialist at Despatch Cloud; A growing business in Driffield, during my time there part of my role was to use my skills in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL to maintain and grow their website along with doing their SEO. I am able to manage my time very well, ensuring I’m never late or overwhelmed by my workload. I am used to working under multiple KPI’s and ensure I’m always on target, never falling behind.
