I’m a UK-based software engineering manager and web developer who loves building clean, useful products with great UX. I work mainly with JavaScript/TypeScript and ship end-to-end apps using modern web tooling.
- Engineering Manager @ DT (post-acquisition from Cado Security)
- Building SaaS products on the side (shipping MVPs fast, then refining)
- Strong focus on developer experience, testing, and maintainable systems
- Interested in psychology + human behaviour (and how tech can support people)
- Always experimenting with new ideas, tools, and workflows
- WeddedTogether — a wedding guest media sharing app for couples (Next.js + Supabase)
- EvenGround — a co-parenting schedule + calendar sync tool (web first, Expo later)
- Home lab / NAS projects — self-hosting, automation, and local services
A few things I’m building or evolving.
A simple platform for wedding guests to upload and share photos with the couple. Stack: Next.js, Supabase, Tailwind, Vercel Links: (add repo/demo link)
A scheduling + transparency tool for separated parents to manage custody calendars, changes, and shared child notes. Stack: Next.js, Supabase, ICS calendar export, Expo (planned) Links: (add repo/demo link)

I like building products that feel calm, intuitive, and genuinely helpful — not just “features for the sake of it”.
Thanks for stopping by 👊
