Curriculum Vitae and other information about myself

This site was last updated on Saturday, 23rd December, 2023.

I am a responsible 20-year old who is keen to begin a career and achieve some experience in the working world. During my days in Education, I have studied a variety of subjects that I have developed into a wide range of skills that I can now take forward into my career. I have learnt how to work with others in group projects and how important it is to allow people to be able to talk & have their say. I work in an organised manner and always like to get my work done in plenty of time and not leave anything to the last minute. I am would like to work and learn on either an apprenticeship or a full-time job outside of Government Funded employment in the private sector (i.e. getting a job rather than an apprenticeship) rather than going back to college.

Since October/November, I have been on Universal Credit and between 31st December 2021 and the end of June 2022, I was on the UK Government's "Kickstart" scheme working for a CIC as a website "developer" working from home; I have since left this organisation.

My D.O.B. is 10/NOV/2001 so if this page is not updated, you can still keep track of how old I am.

Please note that if you try to call me when I have not sent my CV as a PDF, then I will not answer, especially if there is no caller ID. Please contact me via email first before calling me...!

Roles that I am interested in / looking for

Software Development / Software Engineer
IT / Technical support / IT Infrastructure maintainer
Data Analytics / Power BI
- Database Management

As of July 2022, I am looking for either an a prenticeship or something on the UK Government's "Kickstarter" scheme assuming it doesn't close down due to budget cuts but I am willing to do work outside these "schemes"

PDF version?

A PDF version is available which is print ready, includes my email address, phone number and home address which is not listed here due to the high risk of spam sent to my email and/or personal address.

If you are an employer and already have an interview date set, you should've already received a copy of this PDF which is also how you likely got to this page.
