Experience
I am currently a Software Engineer at Citrix, having completed two Summer Internships. My role involves identifying and rectifying bugs in the Workspace Platform or identifying and developing new features for inclusion.
I was a student ambassador at Warwick University, my role involved assisting with open days and widening participation activities.
I was a Science Communicator at Techniquest Glyndwr - My role ranged from presenting the live science shows to assisting visitors with exhibits
Volunteering
I have been a Section Assistant for Scouts ever since I was 18, initially at Bishops Own Scouts in Wrexham, where I still occasionally help at camps and other events, and more recently at 1st Whitnash Scouts in Leamington, where I assist with the planning and delivery of activites.
I was the President of Warwick Canoe for the 2020/21 academic year, dealing with the administration of the club and managing the exec members to ensure the smooth running of the club.
In my second year I was one of the Social Secretaries of Warwick Canoe and Canoe Polo, this involved organising and running regular social events for members of each club.
I was a "cousin" within the Department of Computer Science, this is where first year students are assigned to students in later years to allow them to ask questions or seek help with settling into University. The cousin system is very effective and provides students with a less formal way of seeking help.
