\section{Professional Profile}
Im an Associate Lecturer of Computing, with an academic focus on web
development, supporting additional modules with graphics and simulation content
and group game projects. My duties include acting as supervisor/product owner on
student game projects, and my academic background is in Computing for Games (BSc
Hons) and Entrepreneurship (MA). I have a strong interest in working and
learning both high level and low-level programming languages and APIs. I also
have good first-hand knowledge of working within and managing scrum/agile in
small multidisciplinary teams. I aim to use my interests in software to
transition into the games industry, specifically targeting working on tools and
game engine components. My interests lie in technical depth. The key areas Im
interested in are real-time networking, graphical simulation within code and
maintaining and deploying Linux based systems.

\section{Career Summary}
\entry{2021--Present}{Associate Lecturer of Computing}{Falmouth University -- Games Academy}
{
Here, I am currently working with lecturers in the games academy to develop
course materials for computer science-based modules. I hope to use my time
here teaching students to further hone my skills in a direction that leads me
back to working directly with video games whilst imparting some of my
knowledge from developing ramble with modern web technologies back into the
university's courses.
}
\entry{2019--2020}{Co-Founder, CTO and Full Stack Web Developer}{Ramble Media LTD}
{
We wrote and maintained a live audio broadcasting website with a talented
co-founder in the hopes of disrupting the podcast industry. We hoped to
achieve this by creating the ability for podcasters to host call shows.
Creating chatroom functionality with the ability to re-stream to audiences
much like other famous apps that came out in the time since, such as
Clubhouse and Podbean.
\newline \newline
The key takeaway from this project was a more developed understanding of how
software teams work in a more professional setting and developed a deeper
understanding of the agile/scrum in the environment it was designed for. And a
broad skill-set in the web development industry including
recording/broadcasting live media entirely in the web browser and a decent
understanding of modern web development frameworks like, react.

\section{Education and Qualifications}
\entry{2018--2019}{MA Entrepreneurship --- Launchpad Program}{Falmouth University}
{
In this program I helped research the market surrounding a software product.
In which then helped to create in an attempt to disrupt the podcasting
industry. See {\bfseries Career Summary --- Co-Founder and Full Stack Web
Developer} for more information.
\newline
\newline
The core skills I took away from the more academic side of the project include
the ability to plan and produce much larger and more complex plans for
creating software that included using live daemons and services to complete
functionality without duplicating work.
}
\entry{2015--2018}{BSc (Hons) Computing for Games}{Falmouth University}
{
During this degree I not only developed all of the core skills based on
video game production, but also because of the coursework based structure of
the program worked in several multidisciplinary teams. The most successful
project of which I was made a part of was the first company I hoped to help
start. I joined this group of students hoping to create and self publish what
would be their final year (and my second year game) called Monq
\href{https://d-tail-entertainment.itch.io/monq}{https://d-tail-entertainment.itch.io/monq}.
\newline
\newline
But I found that the most interesting part of the course for me was creating
my own graphics engine to display and allow one to traverse a simple
procedurally generated landscape. This is due to my love of trying to gain a
deep understanding of how more minimalist systems work. %TODO link
