About

Here is a little background

A little about me, I have a 1st class Bachelors of Computing Science from Huddersfield University. I currently hold a position of software developer at Modulr where I am based in London. I spend most of my time in the world of microservices and API building, building out in Java storing into PostgresSQL. Outside of work I am trying to build projects around the front end, allowing me to experience the full end to end process of web developement. I have previously worked with big data and hopefully will get hands on with it again!
