Jack Smith

I'm a passionate builder at heart, whether that's developing software, starting businesses, or exploring the world. I founded a small web development business to help local companies grow their online presence. Now, I'm focused on an ambitious new goal: making Offline AI accessible to everyone who needs it, no matter their resources or internet connection.

At university, I've explored a wide range of computer science disciplines, from hands-on machine learning projects to full-stack web development with real clients. I've also worked with SELSA (Sheffield Engineering and Leaership Academy), where I attend talks from industry experts, join workshops to develop my technical and leadership skills, and take part in networking events to expand my professional circle. These experiences have shaped me into someone who loves solving real-world problems and delivering work that makes an impact.

Outside of tech, I'm driven by adventure and physical challenge. I'm a keen boulderer and judoka, and I recently spent a month hitchhiking from Croatia through Europe to Morocco, a journey that ended with a week of volunteering in a small village near the Sahara Desert. These experiences keep me grounded, resilient, and always eager for the next challenge.
