Initially, my role revolved around producing AutoCAD drawings for estates, with a specific focus on asbestos and utility management surveys. However, I was able to utilise my Web Design skills to produce a responsive front end to the software. I then started studying for my degree in Web Development while continuing to work for Quantarc.

Consequently, I began conducting web accessibility audits using JAWS software, translating findings into actionable improvements to ensure WCAG compliance through the implementation of WAI-ARIA. I also ventured into designing prototypes featuring offline storage capabilities, which enabled surveyors to seamlessly utilize software in large estates with intermittent internet connectivity. Alongside this, my proficiency in database development using Oracle and SQL grew, contributing significantly to efficient data management.

Furthermore, I played a pivotal role in implementing responsive front-end solutions and actively participated in the MVC rewrite of a Web Forms project. Collaborating closely with Senior Developers, I integrated React components, thereby facilitating the direct incorporation of AutoCAD functionality into the application. This journey highlighted my adaptability, problem-solving skills, and a commitment to embracing new challenges.
