Following on from a career in finance I decided to make a career change in 2019 and further my hobby in coding and take it to the next level. I studied as a Full Stack Software Developer at Code Institute and graduated in December 2020 with a diploma in Software Development, receiving a 2:1 grade (equivalent to a level 5 on the European Qualifications Framework (EQF)).

The course covered the fundamentals of coding from User Centric and Interactive Frontend Development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) through to Data Centric Development and Full Stack Frameworks (Python, SQL, Django).

Since then, I have not looked back, and continue to learn and grow through freelance work, being part of many exciting web developing projects for a Theatre Company, Author, and Actress. I have found working with my clients, bringing their initial ideas from wireframes through to production, a most rewarding part of the job.

I have also worked as a Web Designer and through all this experience I have really found my passion and motivation in coding.

I enjoy writing and designing and I have quite recently researched and published a book, titled "A Brief Interlude" by Jack Fairfield, where I used programs such as Indesign, Photoshop and Illustrator.

I am a manager and player for Långholmen Football Club playing both 11 aside and 7 aside throughout the year. I am also part of the board which discusses the clubs future and planning for each season.

I enjoy walking and trekking and have enjoyed many fantastic climbs through out the world. Including Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and extensive treks around the Himalaya's, Asia and Scotland.

I am a keen runner and gym enthusiast who enjoys the challenge of Obstacle Course Racing. I have entered into competitions throughout Sweden and United Kingdom, with the most gruelling being the Rat Race which consisted of running 30km while tackling 200 obstacles.
