About
It all started over a decade ago when I wanted to remove some padding on a web template I had. Little did I know that that simple act of tinkering would unlock a world of coding for me and set me on a journey in software engineering.
Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients and companies, from individuals to small businesses and even on my own startup. I've collaborated on projects spanning various industries, from film production and recruitment to e-commerce and sport.
When I'm not working, I'm either on the golf course, following my football team, playing video games or playing around with a new language or framework.
