About Me
Hi there! I'm a 2nd year student of Computer Science at the University of Oxford, learning the academic foundations of the subject. In my own time, I develop software for Apple's platforms, the web and the server. I enjoy a challenge and love exploring new frameworks, languages and technologies.
For two years running, I was named a winner of Apple’s annual Swift Student Challenge and was lucky enough to present my app to Tim Cook and other top Apple management. I've also been featured in an Apple EU article on learning to code.
Since then, I have proved myself in a number of competitions, such as being a national finalist in the British Informatics Olympiad. I have become an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner and I have led the first victorious UK team in the Mathworks Math Modelling Challenge.
Explore some of the projects I have worked on below.
