PERSONAL STATEMENT

My desire and passion at University is to develop my knowledge within Software/Digital Technology. From the pioneers of technology such as Steve Jobs to innovators in the modern era such as Elon Musk, I have always kept my finger on the pulse of changes and trends in the field. The reason why I am applying for this course is because I not only wish to expand my knowledge in the field, but also be in a position to offer ideas and alternatives and to originate, effective technology solutions and products that could appear in the marketplace and in the science lab. The course’s own specialisms in software engineering, data analysis and business strategy, this will hopefully augment my chances of being successful in my application.

Looking through the modules, I am interested in the Maths and Algorithm aspect of Digital Technology. Solving problems and understanding formulas has caught my attention within the course. As I have dyslexia, I am fortunate to be able to see enormous quantities of visual data (global visual processing and the detection of impossible figures), pattern recognition and solving problems with an unorthodox approach. I also am gifted with sharp peripheral eyes and I am able to process unique thoughts.

In my first year of college I studied a subject within my interest which was IT. I was taught units, such as Web Development, Software, Audio, Visual Effects and much more. I wanted to move on and explore into a subject that I am unfamiliar with, so I looked into Creative Media. I completed a two-year Media course at City of Westminster College. I believe continuing this course led me to enhance on a variety of skills and qualities, which will help me in the future. Each unit has a desired outcome of creating a pre-production folder. This folder has enabled me to obtain skills such as planning, being flexible with time and project management. As some units are group work, I have gained experience and skills that I can use in all environments to work as a team as well as a group leader. I believe I can bring personal qualities to the table such as creativity, commitment, humor, self-dedication and determination. I also specialize in pushing people to the extra mile, whether it’s perfecting work, motivating, or giving simple advice.

I am currently producing a video for Westminster Council. This has enabled me to experience the feeling of working with clients also understanding what the clients want and delivering it successfully. I was assigned to produce a positive 1-minute film that promotes ‘Westbourne Green open space & calisthenics park’ with the location and the facilities that are free and available to all.

Working at Amazon Warehouse has been a good experience for me. There were a lot of roles and departments I had to work within. This has allowed me to understand how to work with different departments simultaneously within a short span of time also experiencing working under pressure. As most days were different amazon, I

In my spare time, I enjoy training Mix Martial Art known as Taekwondo. The art of training Taekwondo helps to relief stress from the mind. It trains the body to understand discipline, courtesy and integrity, which are believed crucial in any working environment. I am also training calisthenics. As calisthenics’ is a hard-working sport, it allows me to break barriers and create milestones. Being able to achieve and reach my targets shows qualities such as commitment and perseverance. I also love photography and following the rules of cinematography to create perfect images.

With my desire to take on challenges that take me out of my comfort zone, plus a deep passion and desire for digital technology, I feel I will make a valuable contribution to your organization.
