Jacob Wilson

I'm currently in my final year of my Computer Science degree at the University of Birmingham, on the degree apprenticeship programme with PwC!

Outside of technology, my main interests are travel and photography, preferably both at the same time, but if there's an opportunity for either then I can't complain! If I'm not doing that, then I'm most likely watching the F1.

You can find me online in all of the places linked below!

Projects

I've worked on a few projects recently, here are some of the highlights!

Student Summer Sprint

Hackathons for Schools - August 2020

In light of the COVID-19 situation, we decided to run our own work experience week for students in Y12. This programme was filled with workshops and talks from industry professionals, current students and recent graduates.

We offered 50 spaces, but they were all full within a matter of days!

Insight Week Challenge

PwC - April/May 2020

I created a virtual CTF-style challenge for the students taking part in the virtual Insight Week.

For this I took on a number of roles including leading a small team, web development, setting up the back-end infrastructure and creating challenges.

Photography

Since the age of four I've been slowly filling hard drives with literally thousands of photos. Here are a few of my favourites.
