Hello, My name is Jeffery Forbes

I am an aspiring software engineer, looking for roles as an apprentice to enter the software industry. I primarily have experience with the following programming languages; HTML, CSS and JavaScript, as well as the frameworks and source-control management systems below.



My passion for coding developed out of boredom during the nationwide lockdown in May 2020. It started as a new and fun skill that I could develop and create personal projects that I had thought of but never had the technical skills to do so. This led to the first project that I completed after one week of learning HTML and CSS; I created a business website for my step-dad.


The journey I am on right now started with that business website. Having dropped out of University (studied Law) due to a combination of losing interest in my Law degree and a feeling of losing time after my grandmother passed away. I decided that University was not the place for me. After one year, I still was not sure what I wanted to do and begun trying different things. I initially started to compete in some minor esports tournaments for Rainbow Six Siege; then I moved on to video-making on YouTube. And finally to streaming before finding a footing in coding. I have not and do not intend to stop participating in these activities that I started instead, I have shifted them to hobbies.
In fact, I still compete in more entertaining games for a discord community which we streamed for charity and managed to raise over £1200. Additionally, I occasionally make videos and stream on twitch. However, my primary focus is on programming.
