About

Most developers
can't design.
Most designers
can't code.

I started as a graphic designer. When I needed apps built, I couldn't find developers who understood design — so I became one.

Now I build full-stack products from brand identity through to production-ready applications. My design background means the things I build don't just work — they look right.

Based in Bristol, UK. Currently open to roles and freelance contracts in mobile, front-end, and product.

M
Mobile Apps

B

W
Web Applications

F
Full-Stack
Supabase, Stripe, Twilio — the plumbing that makes apps actually work in production.

How I Work

The Process

01
Understand
I don't quote before I understand. We talk about the problem, the users, and what success looks like before I write a line of code.
Discovery callScope docTimeline
02
Design
Brand identity, UI direction, and component design come before engineering. Getting design right early saves build time later.
Brand systemUI componentsIllustrator
03
Build
Atomic commits, test coverage, real infrastructure. I build things that survive contact with real users — not just demos.
