About me

Developer, Dad and Digital Tinkerer

I'm a web developer who believes the best code is written when you've got something worth building. As a dad, I've learned that debugging toddler tantrums is surprisingly similar to debugging production issues – both require patience, creativity, and sometimes you just accept defeat and try again tomorrow.

When I'm not crafting web applications or exploring the latest tech stack, you'll find me in the boxing gym throwing punches (therapeutic after a day of wrestling with bug fixes), riding my motorbike, or gaming with friends who understand why "just one more game" always turns into three.

I write about web development, AI and the general tech industry. I share lessons learned from building with new technologies, and occasionally reflect on balancing the developer life with being present for family. My goal is simple: help fellow developers grow while staying connected to what matters most.

Building things. Breaking things. Learning from both.
