Software Development

Skills

Python

I have been learning and developing using Python for 4 years now. I utilise and understand a variety of Python packages that can be used in many situations for a wide range of projects.

HTML

I began to learn HTML about a year ago now and have become proficient in creating structured web pages.

CSS

Along with learning HTML, I also learnt CSS to be able to style my websites. As a side note, I have also utilised and learnt small elements of Javascript but I do not know enough just yet to be able to justify it as its own skill.

Databases

I have used PHP and SQL in conjunction with one another and HTML to create a sign in/sign up system for a website to better understand how to use databases. Fun fact: that's what jacobmarsland.com used to be!

Leadership

I like being able to take control of a situation as to ensure a good and clear final outcome.

Active Listening

As well as being a natural leader, I am able to listen to, understand, and take on board everyone’s ideas to make sure that the end result isn’t biased by myself or others.

Clear Communication

I am able to clearly express my ideas and opinions to others in a way that they understand so that they can take them into account and/or constructively build upon them which can only truly be done with proper understanding.
