💻 Business Systems Manager | 🌐 Web Developer | 🎓 Final-Year Computing & IT Student

I build real-world web applications using Python (Flask), focused on solving business problems, improving workflows, and creating clean, user-friendly systems.

🔹 Building a Training Management System A full-stack platform designed to manage:

• Student onboarding
• Training agreements
• Progress tracking (timesheets, learning, exams, reviews)
• Role-based dashboards

🔹 Expanding into larger systems like:

• PulseCore → Record management & reporting platform
• LearnLoop → Learning, onboarding & compliance system

I don’t just build apps — I design systems.

• Strong relational database design
• Clean, scalable Flask architecture (Blueprints)
• Real-world workflows (not just CRUD demos)
• Focus on UX and usability
• Continuous iteration and improvement

Backend

• Python (Flask)
• SQLite (expanding to scalable DBs)

Frontend

• HTML / CSS / JavaScript
• Jinja2 templating

Other

• Git & GitHub
• Microsoft Dynamics 365 (Power user)
• Azure DevOps

A portfolio-grade Flask application demonstrating:

• Full student lifecycle management
• Agreement tracking
• Dashboard-driven UX
• Modular architecture

👉 Actively in development

I maintain a structured roadmap of future builds and ideas:

• Scalable business systems
• Workflow platforms
• Reporting dashboards

👉 See: project-roadmap repository

I currently work as a Business Systems Manager, where I:

• Lead system improvements and transformation projects
• Work closely with developers, testers, and stakeholders
• Manage complex workflows and operational systems
• Bring real-world requirements into my development work

I started this journey in 2019 with the Open University. Now in my final year, I’ve moved from learning fundamentals to building real, production-style systems.

My best ideas usually arrive at 2am… and turn into full systems a week later 😄
