Hi, I'm Rachel

I'm a Computer Science student at NTNU with a background in astrophysics from the University of Oslo.

I'm interested in software development and enjoy working across different levels of the stack — from web applications and REST APIs to Java applications and low-level programming.

Currently working on

  • Java training application — developing a full-stack application as part of a university team project, building on a UI/UX prototype developed in a previous course. The application will use a REST API.

  • Full-stack web application — developing a search and discovery application using React, with a backend deployed on a university-hosted virtual machine. The project includes server-side development and will incorporate GraphQL.

These are ongoing university team projects. The repositories are currently hosted on NTNU's internal GitLab and are not publicly accessible.

Featured project

A desktop labyrinth game built with Java and JavaFX, featuring collision detection, persistent highscores, file handling and unit testing.

Background

Before studying Computer Science, I completed a bachelor's degree in Astrophysics at the University of Oslo, where I used programming for scientific computing, numerical analysis and working with astronomical data.

Some of my earlier Python and Jupyter projects from my astrophysics studies are available in my repositories.
