Experience

  • Full Stack Web Developer

    Dev Academy Aotearoa

    Aug - Dec 2022

    Graduated from an intense 15 week bootcamp that taught modern web development and what it is like to work in teams. We learnt various frontend and backend technologies and how to work in an agile setting. There was also an emphasis on learning soft skills to help improve the people side of tech and how to work with various personalities.

    Sep 2020 - Aug 2022

    I took projects from client consultation to building consent submission and construction management, working on projects that fell into a wide spectrum of difficulty. I also managed client expectations, coordinated external consultants and helped project manage successful outcomes.

  • Architectural Graduate (Team Lead)

    Design Network Architecture

    Jan 2019 - Mar 2020

    Responsible for leading a team of 3 junior developers while they learnt the workflow and building consent process. This was my first role in a leadership position where I found a natural ability to coordinate a team towards an outcome and how to work with different personalities. I was promoted twice in a year to land the team lead position, progressing from junior to intermediate technician prior.
