I am Huntley James Mitchell, a dedicated and goal-oriented 3rd-year BIT Information Systems student with a passion for technology, innovation, and meaningful impact. I combine strong academic performance with excellent emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills, allowing me to thrive in both collaborative teams and independent roles.
Driven by curiosity, I have a growing interest in Artificial Intelligence and its potential to revolutionize industries and improve everyday life. I actively follow developments in AI and look forward to contributing to its ethical and practical implementation in the real world.
My personal interests reflect both creativity and critical thinking — I enjoy problem-solving through puzzles, and I’m an avid gamer who was an active member of my high school’s esports club. I also enjoy sports such as rugby, cricket, golf, and motocross, as well as spending time outdoors.
Beyond academics, I value community and giving back. I was a long-standing volunteer at a heritage steam railway for six years and served on my school’s Interact Task Team, supporting initiatives for those less fortunate. These experiences have taught me the value of service, leadership, and humility. As I prepare to enter the professional world, I am excited to contribute to the future of IT through innovation, empathy, and continuous learning.
Volunteered 5+ years, assisting with steam locomotive maintenance and public events, engaging with over 20 000 visitors annually and contributing to the preservation of South African rail history.
