She then undertook a coding bootcamp through Northcoders to learn the skills to become a Developer and found her first position in the industry with NorthLink Digital.

As a Teesside local, Danni is keen to support young people in the area. She mentors our own university interns, whilst outside of work helps with a local Brownie pack. She also joined a mentoring programme to help inspire and empower girls.

Harry Render

Having studied to become a web developer at Teesside University I now work at Northlink Digital.

During college my IT course featured application development, web development, and more IT related topics, but ultimately I decided I enjoyed building websites the most since I like doing both design and programming.

I have worked with NodeJS, Angular, Vue (NuxtJS), React (NextJS), Firebase, HTML, CSS, and the Yii2 PHP framework.
