About

I currently study Computer Science at the University of Liverpool. What really draws me to computer science is the hardware and the systems. I love learning about networking, its interaction with hardware, and how data travels across the globe.

I also love to involve myself in a variety of activities outside of school. At College, I competed at Lockheed Martin’s Code Quest and argued prosecution under the Computer Misuse Act at the Royal Courts of Justice in a national Mock Trial Competition.

A-Level NEA
Educational prototype
60 / 70

A full-stack medication-management prototype for residential care homes. I built it for my A-Level Computer Science NEA to coordinate medication schedules, inventory and administration records, with access separated by organisation, role and permission.

Built with

Python · Django · PostgreSQL
HTML · CSS · JavaScript

Separate manager and carer flows. Managers organise residents and carers into care groups, set permissions and control access duration.

02What needs giving, when

The carer dashboard prioritises scheduled medication and records administration with a time and care notes. PDF MAR charts provide a downloadable record.

Archery / University of Liverpool

When I started at Liverpool University, I had a goal in mind to explore something new outside of studies. Archery drew me in and became a mainstay in my weeks to come for the year.

I love archery, it’s such a fun sport that is both casual and competitive, and great for the social atmosphere it brings. I am currently in between disciplines, attempting to master both barebow and recurve styles.

Along the journey, I got elected to kit secretary at my first ever club AGM. Moving forward, I am learning so much more about archery equipment itself, and excited to help the club in the coming years of my studies.
