Problem-solving is what drives me. Sometimes that’s designing AI workflows, sometimes it’s building small tools, or just finding ways to make systems run smoother.

I care about creating things that are functional, but also feel good to use. Better, smarter, safer. ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ

Momentum matters to me. I believe in progress through consistency whether it’s coding, reading, learning, or running. It doesn’t need to be huge; it just needs to keep moving forward. Curiosity and motion are what push my work.

This website is a reflection of that. A collection of the industries, technologies, and projects I’ve worked on shaped by steady, incremental progress.

I started in 1999, writing applications in QuickBASIC and booting into MS-DOS on old beige hardware. Back then, building text editors and small tools was just a hobby, long before I had internet access. Design caught my attention too. First in MS Paint, then in Fireworks MX, where I created graphics and assets for whatever I was building.

Around the same time I began exploring HTML, building simple, table driven web pages. I didn’t know it then, but those experiments were the foundation of becoming both a designer and a developer.

Over time I created hundreds of QuickBASIC tools, small designs, and basic websites, plus a few games using ActionScript 2 in Flash. Slowly, design and programming stopped being separate interests and started working together.

Each breath feels crisp and sharp when heading out before sunrise in –5 °C cold air. We run along narrow woodland trails early in the morning. It’s a simple joy, just me and Cooper (my Labrador).

Signing up for winter series events has made these runs even better. We push ourselves while completing races across the country, in the Midlands, the Lake District, Norfolk and Suffolk, and more. Canicross season lasts between November and April, and the atmosphere is always great.

Road and trail running are mixed up, making road running more accessible in warmer weather.

Early mornings when the roads are still quiet, late evening spins when the light starts to dip, or even on a turbo trainer or Zwift, I ride solo most of the time, and that space to think is something I’ve come to really value.
