About 💭

Aspiring Network Engineer based in the United Kingdom, currently in my final year of a Computer Science (Software Engineering) degree at the University of Kent. I also have 3 years of hands-on experience building software with React, Python, Java & TypeScript. Alongside my degree, I'm working towards getting my CCNA certification to build a strong foundation in networking.

I'm also into homelabbing. You can check out the hardware specs I use every day, a collection of articles on networking and software engineering that I've found interesting, and some photos I've taken in my spare time. Feel free to sign my guestbook and leave a message while you're here!
