Intern at Cloudflare

I am currently on the UI platform team at Cloudflare, where I work on the Dashboard, and the ways that people interact with the products. Along with the team, I aim to make it a delightful and thoughtful experience.

I study computer science at the University of York, and I was previously a software development intern at Objective.

You can contact me via email, or LinkedIn, or find me on X and GitHub.
