About Me

Nice to meet you!

My name is Caleb Whorton, i am 20 years old and based in Somerset, UK with a current background of working in IT Support.

Background

I grew up in a quiet town in Somerset, and from a young age, I had a strong interest in technology, inheriting the interest from my father.

I did decently in school and from a young age I always enjoyed self-learning, as it allowed me to learn things in my own way and tinker around, which made it more engaging.

After school, I attended college alongside working at my local McDonald's. Considering the reputation McDonald's gets, working there gains you a lot of valuable skills.

I ended up finishing college and decided to go full time working at McDonald's while continuing to self-learn my skills. I focused on learning various skills such as Active Directory, Networking, Linux, and much more! To this day, I have servers at home running services, to keep improving my skills and learning new skills.

In late 2023, I have been learning web development, as I have always had a keen interest in learning a programming language and developing cool things! Although front-end web development isn't technically programming, I am starting at the beginning and working my way up to JavaScript and backend. My end goal is to become fully stacked!

My Hobbies & Intrests

Technology

Since a young age, technology has been a huge passion of mine! I always love tinkering around and keeping up to date with changes, both hardware and software.

Cars

Cars are a big passion of mine, particularly the mechanical side. In my free time, I often watch people rebuilding/fixing cars. My favorite cars are VAG group cars, in particular, Audi.

Music

Whether I am at my desk at home or out and about on my own, I always have the radio or my music on. I love the Beatles. I find their timeless tunes and innovative approach to music incredibly inspiring.

Aviation

Alongside technology, I have always had an eye for aviation. Although I haven't pursued flying, I do hope to get my private pilot license one day!

Travel

I enjoy traveling and experiencing the cultures of different countries. I have visited quite a few places in Europe and America.

Development

The more I develop, the more it becomes a hobby, as it's addicting! Currently, I am learning web development alongside keeping my IT engineer skills updated!
