About

Curious and creative engineer who sees building software as much an art as a science. The same instinct that has me sketching portraits or playing classical pieces on the piano and trumpet drives me to make things that are carefully crafted and genuinely useful to people. I love untangling messy real-world problems, explaining them in plain language and owning them from first idea to something that works. I do my best work in collaborative teams where I can learn fast, share what I know and lift the people around me; away from the keyboard you will find me on the badminton court or playing cricket.
