01About

One engineer, both sides of the deploy button.

I studied cyber security, and it still shapes how I look at systems: what's exposed, what can fail, and what happens when it does.

AWS training and my own projects pulled me toward cloud and DevOps. I kept building the web side too, from interfaces and APIs to applications running on a live domain.

Today I'm a DevOps & Frontend Developer at Royal Software Technology, working with an engineering team on CI/CD pipelines and frontend development. I also take on freelance web projects.

05Services

Need it built, launched and kept simple to run?

Here's what I can help with. Each service points to real work you can look at first.

06Working with me

Work with me directly, or with a wider team when the project needs one.

A focused project can stay with me from the first conversation to launch. For larger work, I collaborate with other developers and can take part in delivering the wider project.

Directly with me

A good fit for a focused website, a frontend build, a deployment or a CI/CD pipeline. You talk to the person doing the work.

With collaborating developers

A good fit for larger builds with several workstreams. Who covers what is agreed up front, so you know who's responsible for each part.

How I'd approach your project

This is the approach I aim for. The exact steps are agreed for each project.

  1. 01

    Understand

    Start with your goal and what a good result looks like.

  2. 02

    Scope

    Agree on features, responsibilities and timing before building.

  3. 03

    Build

    Share working progress along the way, not just a final reveal.

  4. 04

    Launch

    Set up domain and deployment, then hand over access.

We're independent developers who work together, not a registered agency. If something is outside what we can do well, I'll say so before we start.

07Contact

Have a project or a role in mind?

Tell me what you're building or hiring for. Email is the fastest way to reach me, and a few lines is enough to start.
