I’m a front-end developer with a background in product management and scientific publishing.
My first taste of programming was during my DPhil (PhD) at the University of Oxford. There, I designed and programmed instruments that helped to uncover the chemistry and physics of bird navigation. I also developed a passion for publishing my results, which led me to become the editor for a portfolio of scientific journals. As an editor, I collaborated with software engineers, data scientists and UX designers to develop journal products that our readers and authors loved.
The technology-driven change I experienced in the scientific publishing industry inspired me to do the Software Engineering Immersive at General Assembly. I have also been a Site Reliability Engineer, at Dunelm.
