Profile
I have just completed a BSci, majoring in pure mathematics, (2018) and I hold a BSci
majoring in Software Engineering (2013). The bulk of my work experience has been in front
end web development, however I also have experience in backend coding and databases (see
technical skills).
I am a driven and motivated worker, and I have taken several projects from the conceptual
phase and have worked closely with clients to get them to a finished product. I highly value
good relationships and maintaining clear communication with those I work with, so as to
properly understand how to most effectively design a good solution to the project.

Dec 2017 - Feb 2018
I was awarded a scholarship to work closely with my supervisors, Yann Bernard and TingYing Chen, to investigate some results concerning Wente’s inequality, in the area of
Geometric Analysis. This required me to study recent mathematical literature and publish
original work in the area. I also gave a presentation of my project at AMSI connect 2018,
in front of other recipients of the scholarship.
