About Me
Who I Am
I am a 2nd-year Software Engineering student currently studying at Sheffield Hallam University. My journey into software development began with a curiosity for how things work under the hood, which has since evolved into a passion for building functional, user-centric applications.
What I Do
I focus on creating software that solves real-world problems while maintaining a high standard for design and accessibility. My experience ranges from native mobile development to full-stack web applications.
Some of my key work includes:
- SustainWear: A full-stack web platform for managing clothing donations, featuring AI-powered autofill using Google’s Gemini LLM and a mobile-first responsive design.
- LibraSound: A native Android music player built with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, emphasizing Material 3 design and dynamic color theming.
- Recipe Management: Desktop application development using C# and Windows Forms to help users organize and manage data efficiently.
Technical Interests
I am particularly interested in the intersection of Software Engineering and Artificial Intelligence. Whether it's integrating large language models to improve user workflows or exploring the latest in native mobile frameworks, I enjoy the challenge of learning and breaking new technologies to see what they can achieve.
Outside the IDE
Creative Focus: When I'm not writing code, I spend my time on photography and music, exploring the creative side of technology and art.
Active Lifestyle: I stay active through regular gym sessions and hiking, taking full advantage of the Peak District’s trails right on my doorstep in Sheffield.
The Daily Ritual: I have a strong interest in the art of coffee; having undergone informal barista training, I enjoy the process of crafting the perfect home-brewed cup.
Community and Responibility:Outside of my academic work, I’ve spent several years providing childcare and pet-sitting services for local families in my community.
Fast-paced environments: My experience working in high-demand settings, such as Sheffield United F.C. games, has helped me develop a calm approach to problem-solving and task prioritization.
