# Adam Blakey

I'm currently a Software Developer at Savoy Systems, where I work on a diverse range of projects; the small size of the company naturally makes this a full-stack developer role, working on our backend server, web server, and desktop and mobile apps. My professional work includes:

• Data visualisation for venue owners
• Automated testing of key backend functionality
• Modernisation of our client apps, porting from Delphi to C#

Throughout my professional and academic career, I've developed expertise in the following cocktail of programming languages and technologies:

• C# for desktop and Blazor web server applications
• Delphi for backend server code and legacy UI desktop applications
• Fortran for high-performance scientific computation applications
• HTML, JavaScript, and CSS for front-end web development
• PHP (and Laravel) for web development and server-side applications
• Python for data analysis, scientific computing, and teaching
• SQL for database design and management

During my PhD at the University of Nottingham, I developed scientific software to simulate blood flow and nutrient transport within the human placenta. This work involved:

• Creating mathematical models of complex biological systems
• Implementing numerical methods for solving partial differential equations
• Optimising code for high-performance computing environments
• Visualising and analysing simulation results
• Collaborating with interdisciplinary teams of mathematicians, computer scientists, and medical researchers

I have experience independently teaching a first-year undergraduate Python course at the University of Nottingham. This role allowed me to:

• Guide students through the fundamentals of programming logic and syntax
• Enhance the pre-made teaching materials and programming exercises to suit student abilities
• Provide one-on-one support for students with varying levels of prior experience in computing workshops
• Assess student work and provide constructive feedback

In my spare time, I enjoy developing websites and bespoke software. Some of my personal projects include:

• Pollererer:
• 2nd Beeston Sea Scouts:
• SW Notts Scouts:
• Keiron Anderson:
• Blowsoc:
