I'm a final-year Computer Science student at Lancaster University, with a focus on Cybersecurity and Networking. I enjoy turning problems into working software, and I'm especially interested in system security and networks.
Outside of coursework, I like to build my own projects and keep up with new developments in web development, AI and cybersecurity.
One weekend while I was organising my garage and labelling items with stickers, I realised I needed a proper inventory system. So using Python, I built a small program that lets you input items and quantities, then export the inventory to a CSV file.
Built for a coursework assignment in my second year — a transport web app that lets users plan journeys combining buses, trains and walking. Built in collaboration with Microsoft Copilot.
This is my personal portfolio website, used to display my projects and experience. Built using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
A complete car encyclopedia with detailed information about various vehicles. You can add cars to yours own dream garage. It uses an API that I have designed and created
As a lab demonstrator, I help 1st and 2nd year students with their practical exercises, such as coding practice and the development and deployment of software.
I completed the Microsoft Certified: Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals certification. This includes studying security principles, compliance requirements, and identity management strategies. Using the services such as Microsoft Entra, Sentinel, and Purview Compliance And Azure.
At Lancaster University, I have been involved in various projects such as an Integrated Transport System website, built with JavaScript and React. I have also carried out a security report and penetration test on a live system, using tools such as Wireshark, John and Hydra.
