I am a Senior Full Stack Developer and the Director of Real Code Ltd. With over 10 years of experience integrating complex systems in the Higher Education sector, I specialise in building robust, data-driven applications that solve enterprise-level problems.

While my core background is in the Microsoft Ecosystem (C#, ASP.NET, Azure), I have recently pivoted to an AI-first workflow, utilising tools like Cursor, Windsurf, and n8n to accelerate development in Next.js and React.
