Headline: Astrophysics BSc Honours | Graduated at Aberystwyth University | Archive & Database Manager at Macario Lewin

## About

I am a recent Astrophysics graduate from Aberystwyth University with a strong foundation in Python programming, data analysis, and IT support. My experience includes managing data systems, providing technical support, and conducting astrophysics research. During my internship at Boulders UK, I gained hands-on experience in customer service, health and safety, and team collaboration. Additionally, my roles as Treasurer and Social Secretary for university societies enhanced my leadership and organizational skills. I'm passionate about technology, and problem-solving.

## Experience

- **Intern at Boulders UK** (2017 – 2017)
  In this role, I was given a varied range of tasks from cleaning the holds to assisting with health and safety checks to participating in a branch meeting. I was given basic first aid training which taught CPR, and how to treat wounds. I shadowed multiple classes helping with the warm-ups, tying-in the climbers, and ensuring all safety standards were adhered to. I also assisted in the construction of a new route, which included ferrying the holds and equipment  installing the holds.
  
  Spending time at the front desk, I quickly learnt how to use the company’s booking system to add in and edit appointments and register new clients.
- **Charity Fundraiser at Veterans into Logistics** (2026 – present)
- **Archive & Database Manager at Macario Lewin** (2022 – present)
  This job required me first to reorganise the entire physical archive of files, categorising them into their respective types, and logging this into the digital database so that the employees would be easily able to find the files that they need. I also had to ensure that this process complied fully with GDPR. 
  
  I also acted as an IT technician dealing with any problems that came up on the employee’s computers, the server, the phone line, and the network. This included setting up new devices with the server. I also shadowed meetings with clients, arranged cheques and payments with banks, and delivered letters to clients.
