I'm passionate about developing websites and helping people find effective solutions for their technical problems. With a degree in computer science, I'm currently working as a software enginner at one of the UK's leading charities. When I'm not writing code, I'm usually writing stories about tech, life and literal fiction. Occassionally, I make my way outside to take some pictures, but more often you'll find me experimenting with music production.
In my six years of industry experience I have worked mainly with ASP.NET & C# to create web apps, handle form submissions and manipulate data through APIs. I also have some experience with Typescript from other projects and have obtained a Sitecore Developer Certification.
I really enjoy working with Typescript, React & CSS to create beautiful, engaging user experiences. Next.js tends to be my goto framework for new projects, but I have used others like Astro & Gatsby too. Fast, responsive & usable: that's what I aim for in every project I create.
I've worked with a range of cloud hosting platforms across professional & personal projects including Vercel and Digital Ocean but I am most familiar with Azure. Deploying code, configuring pipelines and managing resources is part of my skill set. Next up, get certified! 💪🏾

This website has undergone many different iterations, featuring Wordpress, Gatsby and even Jekyll! This is the latest version I have built from scratch using Astro, MDX and Tailwind CSS.
Mini photo-blog website I built to showcase some pictures. Made with Astro because of the simple image optimisations & even simpler markdown integration.
