My name is Sid Roberts and I’m a student web developer (available for work) and live in Leeds, England.
Computers, Music & TV
I’m a self-admitted computer nerd and audiophile (although I don’t make music like the rest of my family) which makes up most of my unhealthy obsession: either on the computer, listening to music or watching TV. I always listen to at least an hour of music everyday (a bare minimum); usually it averages at around 2 or 3 hours a day. I believe music to be a vital part of work as it helps you concentrate and relax at the same time. At the moment, for me, the best music is drum & bass but I will generally settle for anything electronic or obscure. Recently, I’ve been playing computer games as well — featuring Race Driver: GRID and Crysis. TV-wise, I like comedy shows such as Scrubs and Malcolm In The Middle and I love Lost and Top Gear. As for films, Deja Vu, Memento and The Matrix are up at the top.
Education
I’m still in school, as a Sixth Form student, studying Computing, Maths (Mechanics), Further Maths and Product Design.
After Sixth Form, I intend to go on to University to do a degree and then maybe a Master’s Degree. And if I’ve still not had enough of university, I wouldn’t mind doing a doctoral degree, if only just to become a “doctor”.
Career
After university, I’d like to be a web developer with a company for a few years and then moving on to build my own company. I’d also like to get into authoring and writing.
