Hi, I'm Carolyn.

I am an ex-professional super-yacht sailor, on a new adventure - launching a new career as a developer!

After more than 12 years at sea, I became fully versed in all things sailing within the Super Yacht industry. I worked onboard both the largest sailing yacht in the world and the largest sailing catamaran as Officer and the onboard sailing expert. During my time working at sea I progressed through the ranks, gaining the highest certification available - the illustrious 'Master 3000'.

While working onboard one extremly large yacht, with a semi-automated sailing system, I became increasingly facinated with the programming and logic behind the automation. So much so that I have decided to take the leap, move back to land and dive into a diferent and new world - striving to become a professional software engineer!

Over the past 18+ months I have immersed myself within Harvard's CS50 courses, completing CS50x, CS50's Web development with Python and Javascript, and most recently CS50's AI with Python.

I am now looking to join a team with a real purpose to progress in my developing career.


Check out some of my projects

Due to Harvard's Academic Honesty Policy, most of my projects are in private repositories. If you would like to take a look, just let me know!

TRAFFIC - A Neural Network AI to identify which traffic sign appears in a photograph

Python TensorFlow NumPy scikit-learn

Video demonstration - Ask to view repository

I used TensorFlow to build a neural network to classify road signs based on an image of those signs. I used the labeled dataset: German Traffic Sign Recognition Benchmark (GTSRB), which contains thousands of images of 43 different kinds of road signs.

German Traffic Sign Recognition Benchmark examples

By combining various layers and filters I was able to create a neural network that's models showed consistantly reliable accuracy of around 0.985 with a loss of around 0.05.
