About me

A brief overview of my background, interests, and experience.

I have a strong interest in Data Analysis, Cyber Security, Software Development, and Machine Learning. My studies have given me a great foundation in core concepts, and I've particularly enjoyed practical modules like Object-Oriented Programming, Algorithms and Data Structures, and Database Systems.

I strongly believe in learning by doing, and I've actively sought out hands-on experience to supplement my degree. I've completed two internships in the UAE, where I gained practical skills in information security, application security, and IT network support. At university, I also work as a Lab Demonstrator, where I mentor and support over 400 first-year students, helping them understand core programming concepts and debug their code. This role has been fantastic for developing my communication and leadership skills.

Outside of study and work, I like to stay active by running, cycling, and playing cricket and golf.
