01About

A builder who ships
and keeps learning.

I'm a full-stack and React Native engineer based in London. I build products end to end, from Next.js interfaces to Node, Python and Postgres back ends. I'm finishing an MSc in Software Engineering at the University of Hertfordshire, researching how LLMs can help catch performance anti-patterns in React apps, and I contribute fixes to open-source projects.
