Profile
Hi! I'm Connor and I'm a Developer based in Newcastle, England. I first went to University in Glasgow to study Pharmacology and worked in the pharmaceutical sector for a few years before deciding I wanted to pursue a career in web development. I am confident that my experience from the pharmaceutical industry as well as my new skills learned from the IT Career Switch online programme can help me in my new career path.
