Tech Stack
I'm skilled in backend development, with a deep focus on Python and SQL. Here's a breakdown of the tools I work with:
- Python: Extensive experience with Python, utilizing it for automation, data processing, and backend development.
- SQL (SQLite): Strong understanding of relational databases, particularly SQLite for database management and optimization.
- C#: Have worked with C# at a decent level, primarily for smaller projects and backend tasks, though not at an enterprise level.
- Version Control: Proficient with Git and GitHub for version control and collaborative software development.
Interests
Beyond coding, I’m passionate about various aspects of technology and software development:
- Backend Development: I enjoy building the logic and architecture behind scalable systems and services that make an impact.
- Automation: Finding ways to simplify repetitive tasks and processes is a key interest of mine. Automating workflows, both in personal and professional projects, is where I find satisfaction.
- Databases: The ability to store, manipulate, and query data effectively is a critical skill, and I’m keen on optimizing databases to ensure high performance and reliability.
Highlighted Projects
These are some of the projects I’ve worked on that showcase my skills in backend development, automation, and problem-solving:
-
Oracle Python CRUD – A Python-based automation tool to perform CRUD operations on a remote Oracle database, streamlining database management tasks and reducing manual work.
This project demonstrates my ability to interface with databases using Python and implement automation for repetitive tasks in enterprise environments.
-
Murder Mystery AI – An interactive game that uses AI to generate murder mystery scenarios, allowing players to solve crimes through analysis and decision-making.
This project is a fun, AI-driven exploration of how algorithms can generate random yet logical scenarios and enhance user experience.

Coin Market Webscraper
This was a personal project i did, it was obtaining data using a websites html. Definitely would have preferred to use an API but still was good fun. I created my own parsing using Regex as the classes were done dynamically.
The only thing i would change about it is that it only gets the first page of data, i would like to make it more dynamic at some point!
Project Status
Currently, I am open to new project ideas but am not actively working on anything at the moment. I'm excited to collaborate on innovative backend-focused projects or explore new challenges in the realm of automation and databases.
Freelance Work
I’ve recently started freelancing to build my portfolio and gain practical experience. While I don’t have completed projects to showcase yet, I'm open to collaborating with clients on:
- Small Python scripts
- Automation solutions
- Database management and optimization
- API integration
If you're interested in working together or have a project in mind, feel free to get in touch!
Education & Achievements
I’ve pursued a self-driven learning path alongside my formal education in computing. Below are some highlights of my academic journey and achievements:
- Mathematics for Computing: Studied vectors, dot products, and matrices to build a solid foundation in mathematical concepts crucial for backend algorithms.
- Programming Fundamentals: Covered the basics of programming in university, with a focus on language known as Python.
- Computer Fundamentals: Gained a deep understanding of low-level computing concepts, such as memory management and CPU architecture.
- Hackathons: Actively participated in hackathons, where I focused on backend development while collaborating with teammates on frontend components. I won the "Most Technical" award at one of these events.
- Computing & Cyber Security Society: Participated in extra taster sessions and was an active member of the society at Bournemouth University (BU). I also placed third in the Advent of Code competition, collaborating with fellow society members to solve complex coding challenges.
CiB Project
I'm currently involved in the CiB group project at Bournemouth University, where we are developing software for a local company. More details will be shared as the project progresses.
Placement Search
I'm actively seeking a year-long placement from August 2026 to August 2027, where I can further develop my skills and contribute to a dynamic team in the tech industry. If you're aware of any opportunities, feel free to reach out!
Certifications & Achievements
I'm continuously working on expanding my knowledge and skill set. Here are some certifications I've earned:
- Basic Python and Intermediate Python (SoloLearn)
- Looking forward to adding more relevant certifications, such as those in cloud computing or database management.
Personal
Outside of coding, I enjoy playing games, listening to music and spending time with the family. I enjoy various kinds of games but mostly First person shooters. Mainly being valorant and the good old Call of Duty Black ops 2.
However I'm also into some free-roam games like GTA V, red dead redemption and No mans sky.
I often listen to music to help focus (including whilst writing up this website, Fuel by Eminem).
When i get time with the family its usually card games and maybe going out to eat or family trip. I have a relationship of 3 years and have recently moved in so it is a
new experience for the both of us trying to live as independant from our families.
Future Goals
As I continue to grow in my career, I have set the following goals for the future:
- Securing a placement: My top priority is to secure a year-long placement in a technology-focused company to gain real-world experience.
- Improving Programming Skills: I want to dive deeper into backend development, particularly learning new languages and frameworks.
- Learning GUI Development: I aim to improve my GUI development skills and create intuitive user interfaces to complement my backend work.
- Innovative Projects: I plan to develop more personal projects, leveraging cutting-edge technologies to create impactful solutions.
