My Story

I'm a final-year BSc Computer Science student at Brunel University London, graduating June 2026. My academic path has been deliberately broad — covering Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence, and Software Engineering in my final year — because I believe the best engineers understand systems holistically, not just the layer they happen to code in.

My Final Year Project, Local Lens, is a full-stack AI civic-reporting platform integrating Claude Vision, Supabase, geolocation pipelines, and a custom priority-scoring engine. It's the most complex thing I've built — and it works.

Outside of university, I've spent three years teaching robotics and Python at RoboThink to 30+ students aged 4–14. That experience taught me that the ability to explain something clearly is just as valuable as the ability to build it. I brought that same clarity to redesigned lesson plans that measurably improved student engagement.

I hold Brunel's READY Certificate of Employability Skills and READY Leadership Award — both issued competitively to a select cohort across the university. I'm actively targeting graduate roles in software engineering and cybersecurity.
