About
Me

I'm a current student with a strong passion for technology. I enjoy learning new skills, exploring creative ideas, and constantly improving through projects and experimentation. These projects include anything from working on physical tech to working on digital projects.

Currently studying and creating projects while taking the design and functionality into consideration — always chasing that perfect balance between a promising design and function. I think the best creations feel inevitable once you experience them.

The Journey

2023

Got Curious For Tech

Using technology every day sparked my curiosity about how it actually works. After using Apple products and seeing technology rapidly evolve, I became interested in understanding the systems behind the devices people rely on but rarely stop to think about. This curiosity inspired me to learn how technology functions.

"It's magic" — It's not.

Started an IT Course

My curiosity about technology led me to study Level 3 IT Extended Diploma at Coventry College. Throughout the course, I explored areas such as networking, programming, cybersecurity, databases, and web development. The more I learned, the more I realised that technology wasn't just an interest — it was something I genuinely enjoyed learning about and wanted to pursue further.

One question led to another.

Tried Arch Linux

When I decided to explore Linux, I chose Arch Linux because I wanted to challenge myself and learn how Linux works through the terminal. I enjoyed the level of control and customisation it offered. Although software compatibility issues stopped me from using it as my main operating system, I still use Arch Linux because of the experience and skills it has given me.

Starting Cybersecurity

Starting this course has been exciting because it's given me the chance to learn more about something I've always been curious about. Even though I'm only at the beginning, I can already see how much I'll learn. After finishing the Level 3 course, I realised that cybersecurity is the area of technology that interests me the most, which is why I will be studying Cyber Security.
