- At the moment I have a wide variety of hobbies. I try to keep active by playing basketball for a local team and going to the gym frequently but when I’m at home I play video games to pass the time. My favourite type of games are competitive tactical shooters such as Valorant. However, I try to have an open mind and try all types of genres, especially indie games. I also enjoy building PCs since I built my own one as a learning experience and greatly enjoyed the process and would love to do it again and improve in the future.

- After the placement and when I finish my A-levels I plan on going to university since I still feel unprepared for going to work.

- At the moment I am still unsure, I am hoping maybe to work as an AI engineer but I do not have enough knowledge about the career yet so I’m still keeping an open mind.
Anything else you want to add?
