Archie is a Programmer / Audio Tech currently studying Audio and Music Technology BSc at ARU Cambridge. So far in their career they has been part of the tech crew at multiple events at Saffron Hall in Essex, The Portland Arms and ARU.

From a young age Archie has loved taking things apart and then trying (not always successfully) to figure out how they work. This led them down a path of learning Python and other programming languages in primary school which they excelled at. This turned into a love for building and breaking robots and software.

However music has always had a major influence on Archie and they were encouraged and influenced by their hugely talented and very musical grandfather. Archie’s love of music blossomed at Secondary School and culminated in Grade 9 success in their Music GCSE Composition.

In order to satisfy their love of music, computing and technology, Archie studied these subjects at A Level and earned a clean sweep of top A grades.

Outside of their studies Archie is a very keen ‘Sim Racer’ and has competed in many endurance and sprint races against other drivers across the globe. They are also an accomplished drummer having completed their Grade 8 exam and has recorded and performed with their band at University. They also love going to gigs to immerse their self in ‘real’ live music.

Archie’s aspiration is to pursue a career in the Cyber Security sector with a view to completing relevant certifications in the near future. They are especially interested in the field of Ethical Hacking.

Archie is currently working on a Distributed Computing project aiming to improve their knowledge of Networking. This will soon be featured here but it’s currently in the “held together by zip ties” stage.
