Experience
Moghul Express
Initially joined Moghul Express to gain some vital work experience whilst aiming to improve my communication along with customer service, I continued working there as it was helping me greatly in improving a lot of my other skills such as team working, time management, working under constant pressure and dealing with problems. Now, a key member of the team with 5 years of experience, I have a lot of more responsibilities in which I have thrived in.
Freelance Web Developer
Having gained the knowledge required for making websites, I decided to get some experience of making a real website. During this time, I have made a couple of websites for clients which are live and being used in real time. I am responsible for making changes to these sites as and when needed. The websites were created through coding rather than utilising website builders as it allows for more customisation and a more personal touch can be added to the website to make it more appealing/suitable for the audience.
IT Tech Intern
Having finished university, and wanting to explore my options, I decided to take this internship to give me an insight on what working as a Technician is like in a busy environment. This Internship provided me with good experience of dealing with problems in pressure situations. This Internship also gave me good opportunity to work in a professional environment whilst dealing with user queries. I was also responsible for looking after the school for a couple of days when my supervisor was away. This experience was amazing as it meant I was responsible for dealing with all issues and this really lifted my confidence having dealt with all issues successfully.

I also follow a number of sci-fi and fantasy genre movies and television shows, I also have a passion for cooking, and I spend a large amount of my free time exploring the latest technology advancements in the front-end web development world.
