Who am I?

What do I do?

A software developer by trade, I work with people to design, architect and implement software projects, solving real world problems, creating amazing experiences, and building better tools for the future.

Broadly, I work with end users to establish what they need, I design a solution that fits the problem, I implement that solution, and then I test how well it fixes the problem.

The languages I am most proficient in right now are Elixir, Ruby, JavaScript, TypeScript, Bash, Python, and Emacs Lisp.

I’ve worked with businesses in the Healthcare, Pharmaceutical, Life Sciences, Sports, Gaming, Alcohol, Live Music, Advertising, Media, Financial, and Customer Service industries over the years.

I’ve worked with individuals to make their vision come true; I’ve been drafted in last minute as a contractor to fill a gap in a critical team just before January sales; and I’ve been appointed as an acting Chief Technical Officer of a small startup - to steady the reigns until a full-time replacement could be found.

When I’m not building products for other people, I contribute to open source projects such as Diplomat. I’m an avid Emacs fan (checkout my configuration if you dare), so a lot of my contributions are focused among that ecosystem. I do limited amounts of pro bono work for organisations which I care about. From time to time I also do one-on-one mentoring and coaching if the technology or project interests me.
