Welcome Friends!
I am a trainee accountant studying the ACCA professional qualification. I intend doing an MBA once I am qualified.
I really enjoy design and marketing for the internet. I have been into web design since I was 16. Now I use well known software as the back end for my websites that I design around. I also design HTML email newsletters based on the branding and feel of a client’s existing materials.
I use my passion and increasing understanding of business on a practical level in my web design skills. Having a good understanding of a business and its customers or clients, really helps to get the right type and feel of a website when it comes to its design. This is a factor that many web designers don’t understand, or aren’t able to implement.
On a personal note – I just want to be true to who I am, help as many people as possible and to make a difference.
BTW – sorry if you find a few pages with pictures missing – I am working on going through everything and making sure the pictures are there. (I had to reinstall the website!!) Please also let me know if you find a broken link anywhere – I’d be very grateful!!
The Bones of my History:
- 1986 was my big year – I was born!
- Went to school like everybody else.
- At 14/15 I got interested in websites and started viewing the source of websites to see how they’d been put together.
- Got 9 GCSEs
- Did Biology, Chemistry and Maths at A-Level
- Also did AS ICT in my U6
- At 18 I went to Royal Holloway to study Zoology, but hated it so I left.
- At 19 I learnt to Scuba Dive with the British Army (means I’m well trained!!)
- At 21 I got my Windsurfing Instructor qualification in Australia
- At 22 I became hooked on Apple when I worked in an Apple shop ( I was called a geek by several customers – just because I’m a girl and I know SOMETHING about computers Puh! – actually, secretly it pleased me – I’m a GEEK! *blush* oh God…)
- At 23 I was offered a job at PricewaterhouseCoopers in Malta to continue with my accountancy training.
- At 24 I left Malta and moved back to the Channel Islands, and I now live in Jersey. I worked in an Apple shop again (sister shop to the one I worked in in Guernsey) which was awesome, and now I am working at a lovely accountancy firm called Rosscot as an audit assistant.
- I am about to turn 25, and I have found even more things that I enjoy doing, and am just getting into photography, watch this space!!
