I design and build performant systems across the stack — from .NET Core APIs and Java services to Next.js product surfaces. Based in Sheffield, UK. Working with founders and teams worldwide.
// 01 · About
Engineer, not decorator.
I've spent the last five years building software that has to actually stay up — enterprise .NET platforms, Java microservices and modern Next.js frontends. I care about clean architecture, honest performance numbers, and shipping on Fridays without praying.
Currently taking on a small number of freelance engagements for founders and product teams who want senior full-stack work without the agency middlemen.
