.about me

I am a full-stack software engineer from the UK, with a background in web design and development, and in education. I'm a big fan of UI/UX and usability, and a big believer in accessibility and using technology to make the world a better place.

As a web designer and developer I have developed a number of commercial and non-profit websites in both full-time and freelance roles. Most recently, I have developed a number of full stack web apps using Javascript, React, Node.js as well as SQL/noSQL databases and GraphQL/REST APIs. A recent challenge was building a native mobile application using React Native.

I am currently based in Tokyo.
