For the purposes of my final assessment, I had to include a copy of my resume, but now that university is over and I've decided to keep this page updated, I have decided to remove access to a copy of my resume (mostly for privacy reasons). I have kept just some basics here on this page. Of course if you really want to see it though, feel free to contact me!
