Professional Goals
I am an extremely passionate undergraduate student with excellent skills in Maths and Computer Science. About my professional goals, I am highly motivated to learn anything needed for software engineering, and to meet and learn from other people more experienced in the field. My ability to use Python and Java is decent, and am currently learning C++ for personal projects and competitive programming. Aside from my tech-specific goals, I am also learning Japanese and French in order to communicate more effectively while working in [presumably] international settings. I am also currently dabbling in game development, mostly through collaborations with others; I write stories and create 2D art for game projects alongside the programming needed for the projects.
Artifact Descriptions
As you can see, this website is my portfolio for job-seeking, consisting of a resume, professional documents, and contact information. Each of these sections are curated to show my experience and allow you to decide whether I, as a skilled worker and a unique individual, am a good fit for your organisation.
The resume presents my skillsets, work experience, and education; it should present to you a broad idea of what I am capable of.
The professional documents, including email examples and cover letters, will show you how my experience aligns with the goals of your company and my general work attitude.
If you wish to inquire me about anything at all, you will find the contact information section to be of great help.
Personal Growth
Throughout the process of creating this portfolio, I have gained valuable experience in several different ways.
First of all, this website was set up using Hugo and hosted using Cloudflare. It was difficult to deal with, especially as the documentation is not updated for the hosting section since Cloudflare changed their layouts. I wasn’t capable of doing this before, and I expect this to be very useful in the future for my blog that holds personal and technical projects. It was also a good example for working with other people’s creations in a short amount of time.
Secondly, it has improved my understanding of what do employers want to see before hiring people, and I have adjusted my documents and writing to fit this purpose better. It may have improved my writing slightly due to the sheer volume of words wrote and time spent to compile the portfolio.
I hope that through this statement of purpose, you will have gained a better understanding of myself. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
