About

Professional Summary

Detail-driven Software Developer specialising in modern JavaScript, Python, and accessible front-end engineering. I design and ship responsive web applications that pair clean, maintainable code with intuitive, user-centred interfaces. Equally comfortable debugging in the browser, integrating REST APIs, or refining UI details, I bring a pragmatic, product-minded approach to every project I take on.
