Computer Skills
My Computer skills are varied. If anything one of the more important aspects is my way of computer thinking. Unlike any previous generation I grew up with a computer, and grew up on the internet.
I started using CAD in my secondary school at the age of 14. We were very luck and started using ProDesktop, this was a parametric modeler. Working with assembly and parts, out of 3D shapes. When I first came to Middlesex University I found that my CAD work was technically advance but missed the standards and best practices of using a parametric modeler.
Once at Middlesex we started using AutoCAD , this taught me British Standards and the correct way of displaying technical drawing of products. At this time I also undertook some very painfully 3D in AutoCAD.
