About Me

I am based in Birmingham, uk and below is why I decided to become a developer.

Why did I switch careers?

The most consistent interest I've had in my life has been some form of computer. Whether it be through computer games or generic inquisitiveness about how computers work.

After this epiphany I decided to take steps towards the change of career first by teaching myself html, which is what led me to discovering IT Career Switch.

I have now completed the Coding / Full Stack Developer course, and I am looking to increase my real world experience with the new skills I have learnt.
