Full Stack Software Developer | Trainee Test Automation Engineer | ISTQB certified

About me 👋

I am a blend of brand strategy in business, education and tech.

I’m a former account manager in client services, having worked with brands in the logistics, pharmaceutical and insurance industries. My technical knowledge is a result of a Diploma in Full Stack Software Development and an ISTQB certification, having recently finished training as a Java Test Automation Engineer. I worked in a leadership role during my time in education, supporting my school with internal projects, marketing efforts and training of new teachers.

I've built an ongoing portfolio of 5 projects, including a Hackathon event, implementing a variety of technologies and frameworks using agile methodologies.

I approach challenges with critical thinking and a business-focused mindset, drawing from my brand strategy and business degree. I'm working through some additional Udemy courses to expand my technical skills. I hope to become a role model for women in tech and connect with others on my journey as a career switcher.

If you’d like to know more about my experience, feel free to reach out I’d love to chat with you!
