After completing an MSc and PhD in Ecology, I was a technical specialist and manager in the environmental sector, gaining a wide range of skills, such as project management, building relationships with clients and partners, data analysis, problem-solving and working in close-knit teams.

Whilst retraining in my own time as a Full Stack Developer, I was a Business Analyst at Dronecloud, a Software as a Service drone platform. My responsibilities included demonstrating and documenting software, communicating with stakeholders, test-planning, user acceptance testing and project management towards a large project to integrate software across three independent companies. I contributed some code to the development team in my own time.

I have been a developer at Evolok since March 2022, developing new features, integrating with other software and maintaining the existing codebase of enterprise micro-services web-based applications in Java (Spring MVC), JavaScript (AngularJS and vanilla), as well as MongoDB and MySQL databases. One of my achievements is creating proprietary drag-and-drop flowchart software and integrating it into an existing bigger application to allow clients to build user-journeys.
