I can help your business grow by creating beautiful and functional user interfaces. If you’re looking for a developer who likes to get stuff done, let’s talk.
Selected work
An interactive companion website for the book Deities & Developers.
A fast, accessible, fully prerendered site that turns a book’s framework into something you can explore: an animated seven-layer scene, chapter guides, a searchable glossary and practical tools that run entirely in the browser.
A simple, trustworthy personal budgeting app.
Plan each month’s income, bills, debts and savings, track what’s been paid, and see exactly how much money is left. A full-stack app with a GraphQL API, its own database and secure sign-in, designed to meet WCAG 2.2 AA like everything else I make.
Who I am
Hello!
I’m a full-stack developer who sweats the details people actually feel: pages that load instantly, work with a keyboard or a screen reader, and still look sharp on a 360px phone. I work mostly in React and TypeScript, with Node.js, HTML and CSS underneath, and I’m always picking up the next tool worth learning.
By day I’m a full-time developer at a telecommunications company, where I build and maintain mission-critical internal systems on OutSystems, the enterprise low-code platform. I’m also helping to modernise those systems with React and a GraphQL BFF (Backend For Frontend) architecture, so they scale and perform better.
Outside work I design, build and ship my own products end to end. My latest, Techno-Deism, is fully prerendered, built to WCAG 2.2 AA, checked by over 160 automated browser tests and served under a strict Content Security Policy. I host it, alongside my other sites, on my own hardened Linux server with Docker and Caddy.
I also use AI tools like Cursor and Kiro to speed up my day-to-day work. I treat prompting as an engineering skill: clear specs, project rules and context files that keep the output on track, then my own review and a full test run before anything ships. It means I deliver faster without lowering the bar.
Along the way I’ve built RESTful APIs, worked with databases and set up CI/CD pipelines, and I have working knowledge of cloud platforms including AWS and Azure, so I’m comfortable taking a project from a blank editor to a live, health-checked release.
What I work with
Fast, responsive interfaces in React and TypeScript, from reusable components to animated, interactive scenes.
Mission-critical internal systems for a telecommunications company, built and maintained on OutSystems.
The layer behind the interface: RESTful APIs, a GraphQL Backend For Frontend and database work.
Built to WCAG 2.2 AA and proven by automated unit tests, browser tests and accessibility checks on every page.
Containerised releases behind Caddy on my own hardened Linux server, CI/CD pipelines, and working knowledge of AWS and Azure.
Mobile apps with React Native, and 3D modelling in Blender.
AI as a productivity tool in a professional business setting: IDEs like Cursor and Kiro, guided by careful prompt engineering, project rules and context files that keep the output on spec, with every change reviewed and tested before it ships.
