About me

After graduating with a degree in Chemistry I moved to Japan to be a teacher via the JET Programme for 3 wonderful years. Whilst I was in Japan I played around with the idea of writing software for a living but it was only after a few years of being back in London and tinkering around that I seriously considered it as a career path (read about how I got started as a software engineer).

I haven’t looked back since. I love the satsification from building performant, inclusive and accessible products that everyone can use.

In my spare time I like to cycle, watch people race bikes, play all sorts of video games and keep up to date with my Japanese, alongside a couple of other things that I have probably forgotten to add here.

About this site

This site is made with HTML, CSS and a touch of JavaScript using the Astro framework. I don’t have any AI-generated content or analytics.

Inspired by Sophie of Localghost’s excellent talk/article about a love letter to the personal website my aim for this website is for it to be my own corner of the web where I can express myself in own terms.
