I’m a JavaScript and Python wizard who can create blazing-fast and accessible web applications for any device and audience. With 10 years of experience in web development, I have:

• Developed dozens of web applications using JavaScript and Python frameworks, with a focus on Vue.js, Django and Flask.
• Created progressive web apps that work offline, load fast, and provide a native-like user experience.
• Improved web accessibility and performance by implementing best practices such as semantic HTML, progressive enhancement, lazy loading, and code splitting.
• Optimized web animations and transitions using CSS3, SVG, and Canvas, resulting in smoother and more engaging user interactions.

• Full stack software engineer with 10 years of experience in developing and deploying web applications using JavaScript, Python, Vue.js, Flask, Django, RabbitMQ, Postgres, and AWS.
• Standardized front end components in Vue.js, building a reusable and maintainable library.
• Wrote RESTful microservices from scratch in Python and JavaScript, ensuring scalability and reliability.
• Optimized page loads by up to 80%, improving user satisfaction and retention.
• Built PWAs that were offline ready and performant, providing a native-like user experience.
• Managed a team of up to 8 developers, mentoring junior engineers and leading Scrum sprints.
• Managed deployments of applications using AWS, ensuring security and compliance.
• Built integrations with other services, both in-house and third party, enhancing functionality and interoperability.

I have a B.Sc. in Software Engineering from the University of Westminster where I specialised in web technologies. My final year project was all about creating a rudimentary game engine using C++. This was over a decade ago so a lot has changed since then.
