By day I’m a JavaScript developer. On the backend, I’m proficient with tools such as node.js, PostgresQL and Express, and my frontend skills include Jekyll and React. Some of the tools I use day-to-day are Ubuntu, Git, Bash, APT, VSCode and Vim.

My editors of choice are VSCode and Vim.

I’m an advocate for open source software, not only for what it can do to improve business efficiency and lower costs, but also for helping to lower the financial barrier to entry in the tech industry, and for extending the life of hardware, keeping it from becoming e-waste for longer.

I also love riding bikes a long way. I’ve been fortunate enough to ride and volunteer at the Transcontinental Race as well as regular audax rides, and through this I’ve helped to raise money for some great causes such as the MS Society and Macmillan Cancer Support.
