	I went to the University of York, where I probably spent more time in the [https://ury.org.uk student radio] and [https://ystv.co.uk television] scene than I did doing my degree (don't tell my lecturers).

I went to the University of York, where I probably spent more time in the [https://ury.org.uk student radio] and [https://ystv.co.uk television] scene than I did doing my degree (don't tell my lecturers). This gave me a lot of my initial software development, systems admin, and DevOps experience. I graduated in 2024 with a first class Master of Engineering in Computer Science.

	I built and maintained systems there to handle internal processes, such as [https://github.com/UniversityRadioYork/MyRadio member management and show scheduling], [https://github.com/UniversityRadioYork/WebStudio broadcasting from home], [https://github.com/ystv/internal-site production scheduling], and [https://github.com/badger-media/badger media management for live broadcast].
