The most interesting thing I've worked on in my career so far...

I love working in tech, whilst working for my own limited company I had the pleasure of leading many projects, my favourite piece being the re-write of a search engine. This lead to further work extending the original scope which allowed me to stay in the same amazing team longer.

What inspired me into digital and tech...

I like solving puzzles, and whilst I did struggle with the lack of females in my secondary school computing class I saw this as something I could challenge and champion moving forward thanks to a very strong willed Mum who stood up to my computing teacher at parents evening!

My educational background is...

I studied Computer Systems Engineering at the University of Birmingham, since then I have had quite a few professional training courses and certifications. I am a certified Agile PM Practitioner and AWS Solutions Architect and am focusing my studies going forward on Data and Artificial Intelligence

What advice I'd give to girls thinking about a career in digital and tech...

The work is rewarding, whilst there have been strides in regards to inclusion, it will still be a challenge so we need to be a little resilient and try and make things better for whoever follows us. For me working in the tech industry is great when you have the right team and culture to work in. This is a challenge to find, and one persons ideal is another’s nightmare. I find collaborative, iterative and open environments most engaging and enjoyable.
