About me
My name is Alan Drylie I am located on the East Coast of Scotland near Edinburgh.
I am currently undertaking a Coding Traineeship through IT Career switch and Codecademy and a
Full Stack Developer with AI Bootcamp through Codecademy.
The Bootcamp covers Angular, TypeScript, Firebase and introduction to algorithms
Where the Coding traineeship covers Full Stack using PERN.
My most recent role before being made redundant was a low-code Appian Software Engineer where I found my interest for building new things along with QA testing to break things.
My goal once I complete my traineeship is to gain a full time role as a Full Stack Developer.
In my free time I love spending time with my girls as well as Freemasonry, Target Shooting and Flight sims.
