I'm Reese McCaughey, a Software Engineering student at Queen’s University Belfast with Cisco certifications and hands-on experience across programming, networking, and IT. I enjoy building practical applications, like a 2D platform game in Godot and a Kotlin-based educational app for children, and I’m eager to apply my technical skills in real-world software development projects. I’m motivated to contribute to a collaborative development team, solving problems with clean code and thoughtful design. My work at McDonald’s has helped me develop strong customer service, leadership, and teamwork skills, which I bring to any software project alongside my growing programming and testing experience.
