About

Hi I'm Sam a third year comp-sci student at the University of Glasgow. My university projects have helped me grow as a software engineer in different areas including machine learning, algorithms and networking. I love solving problems and building things that tie in my personal interests and my academic coursework.

When I'm not at university I spend most of my time on personal projects. My favourite to date is the PasswordStrengthChecker which highlights my skills in machine learning. I've always enjoyed maths and physics and seeing how they shape my approach to problems.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me playing video games or consuming some work of science fiction. I also play the bagpipes which is where my love from music came from.

I am an optimistic, hard working and results driven individual who's always up for a challenge...
