Background

I’ve always had a strong interest in computers and understanding how things work. From a young age, I enjoyed taking things apart, solving problems, and figuring out how technology fits together. Coding quickly became a natural fit, combining creativity with logical problem-solving.

I originally studied Game Development at university, where I built a strong foundation in programming and digital design. Over time, I applied these skills to website development, where I now focus on creating high-quality, functional websites that help businesses grow online.

Role at Platform 81

As a Web Developer, I focus on building and maintaining modern, high-performing websites. My work includes developing custom WordPress themes and plugins, implementing WooCommerce functionality, and integrating external services where required.

I’m responsible for translating project requirements into reliable, scalable solutions while ensuring the websites we deliver are efficient, secure, and easy for clients to manage.

Outside of Work

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me climbing. I love it because every route is like solving a puzzle on the wall, combining physical movement with problem-solving.

I also enjoy being outdoors, whether that’s hiking, walking, or travelling to new places. In quieter moments, I like sketching, reading, or heading to the beach to watch the sunset.
