About Me

After spending over 15 years in the software development industry I have obtained experience across various sectors, with backend API services being at the core of what I’ve worked on throughout my career.

I'm a Neovim user, which I have to mention at any possible opportunity as per the terms & conditions of using (Neo)Vim, and comfortable using any environment with a terminal - preferably macOS or (almost) any flavour of Linux.

Outside of writing code and tinkering with my dotfiles I enjoy:
