I’m learning to become a full-stack web developer.
I’m a Chemical Engineer working in the oil & gas industry who specialises in
safety-critical engineered systems.
I’m learning to code in my free time, and am building up a porfolio
of personal projects.

Hello! My name is Colin and I’m learning to code.
As an engineer through and
through, I love to build and design things! My interest in coding
started in 2005 when I decided to try my hand at making a Flash
game back when <ActionScript 2.0> was still around!
(Note: Flash
support is no longer available with most browsers so your mileage may vary with the above link.)
Fast-forward to today, and I’ve spent 4 years at a large corporation straight out of university working as a Chemical / Process Engineer in the oil & gas industry. During this time, I found myself gravitating back to my interest in coding.
My main focus these days is to build up a portfolio of different coding projects to show that I’ve still got the chops to go down a different career path.
Here are a few technologies I’ve been working with recently:

I'm currently working as a Chemical / Process Engineer in the oil & gas industry. Although I have not done any coding in a tech-related environment, I frequently use my knowledge of different coding principles to make my job easier, such as custom solvers and functions in Microsoft Excel or Aspen HYSYS.
I hope to move into the tech industry in the near future!
Although I'm currently still learning, I'm always looking for new opportunities to get some real world experience. My inbox is always open so please feel free to say hi! I'll try my best to get back to you!
