Faisal Mohammed | Full Stack Web Development Portfolio

About Me

Passionate and experienced Digital Marketer with cross-sector experience in a range of industries and a successful track record of owning major, multi-channel campaigns for international organisations and implementing effective marketing strategy at the enterprise level.

Currently Enrolled at the University of Birmingham Full Stack Web Development Bootcamp to retrain as a Full Stack Software Developer.

I have always regretted not studying Computer Science at university. For most of my career as a digital marketing professional, I have been fortunate enough to work with some extremely talented developers, but I’ve always wished that i was on the other side of the table - the one doing the development and hands on implementation instead of just facilitating it.

With the pandemic taking its toll over the last couple of years, it has caused me to reconsider my goals and priorities in life, and i have come to realise that it is never too late to pivot and change direction in terms of careers. I’ve realised that i want to work for organisations and on projects that solve problems and try to make the world a better place by leveraging the latest technologies - and learning to code would give me the skill set to make this dream a reality.

The Simpsons Quiz

I was tasked with building a timed coding quiz with multiple-choice questions, built entirely from scratch using HTML, CSS and Vanilla JavaScript. This app runs in the browser and features dynamically updated content powered by JavaScript code that i have written. As i was allowed to base this quiz on a subject of my choosing, naturally i chose to base this on arguably the greatest TV show of all time - The Simpsons.
