Hi, I'm Emma!

I’m an Associate Software Engineer with a background in medicine.

I trained at the University of Cambridge before working as a junior doctor in London. Whilst practicing medicine, I discovered my love for programming through various personal projects. After completing the CodeFirstGirls software engineering course, kindly sponsored by Zopa, I transitioned into a career as a Software Engineer.

I’m an advocate of open source development and I’m particularly interested in contributing to open source tools which enhance processes and workflows within medicine and biomedicine. Currently, I’m learning Rust 🦀 and exploring its capabilities for building reliable, performant software through my open source contributions. I’m part of the Women in Rust community, which is a great way to meet other women in the Rust community and learn from each other. In my spare time, I continue to deepen my understanding of computer systems fundamentals to empower me to build more robust and efficient programs. Check out the things I’ve been learning here.

If you’re interested in my projects, or want to discuss a potential collaboration, please get in touch!
