I grew up in the town of Hartlepool in the North East of England. It was during my childhood, through gaming, that I first ventured into the world of technology. I became engrossed in modding video games; this gateway experience led me to a deeper exploration of botnets and other hacking topics. I spent countless hours on hackforums.net, engaging with other enthusiasts.
In my late teens, I took up interactive media studies at Middlesbrough College, mastering website building and exploring various media forms. With the job landscape being challenging, I temporarily joined my family's used car sales venture. They prospered in that field, but my heart wasn't in it. My real passion lay in creation and innovation, leading me to dedicate countless evening hours to web development. Fate had its way when I once dropped off a customer who turned out to be the founder of an eCommerce agency. He shed light on potential tech career paths. Inspired, I later applied, landed an interview, and thus began my journey into the tech world.
In 2023, I stand as a Senior Software Engineer at Logikcull, a front-runner in the legal tech industry. Looking back, I've traversed diverse sectors such as AdTech, Automotive, Legal, and eCommerce. Along the journey, I've had the privilege of collaborating with many gifted colleagues and even took an entrepreneurial leap with Dealership.co.uk. Throughout, my core passion has been in crafting simple, powerful solutions that make life easier for people.
