Hi, I’m Gill, an aspiring Web Developer with a background in
recruitment, most recently as part of in-house teams at tech companies
for five years.
After being made redundant and making the bold decision to pursue a
career change, I started my coding journey in Feb 2021 and am now
hooked! Since then, I’ve taught myself the fundamentals of HTML, CSS,
responsive web design, JavaScript, Bootstrap, jQuery, SASS, React, and
Redux and have developed a genuine enthusiasm for solving problems,
building things, and engaging my creative side.
As an effective communicator and team player adept at juggling
priorities, I’m now looking for opportunities that will help me hone
my technical skills. Ultimately, I would love to build memorable products and
solutions that have a positive impact on peoples’ lives.
