The one the only moi!

Student by day, techie by night. This is a page I use to dump bits and bobs on, anything from projects I think are cool and deserve a little airtime. I am currently an Electrical and Electronic Engineering Student at The University of Southampton and Head Technician at Exciting Escapes.

At uni I have been awarded the Ada Lovelace Scholarship "a scholarship that aims to create a diverse group of excellent scholars within Electronics and Computer Science", and have helped to update and write new laboratories and protocols for the upcoming revised electrical engineering course. This involved but was not limited to redesigning of hardware, creation of new teaching material and migration of the old intranet over to an open source alternative.

At uni I am a part of several societies including the Stage Technicians' Society, Southampton Robotics Outreach and ECSS, most evenings I can be found somewhere on campus doing something. I do love to help out and do bits here and there, mind you on most nights I do end up in the theatre messing with lights or sound. Outside of uni I love to start projects, not always finishing them. I also love to cook, bake and go for a good cycle.

Thats pretty much me if you are looking for something vaguely cool I have done check out my A-Level Non Exam Assessment on Algorithmic Map Recognition with Canny Edge Detection and Point to Point Pathfinding or Puzzle Debug Stick I am making to help with my techie job at Exciting Escapes.

If you need or want to get ahold of me head over too my contact me page.
