Current work
My work sits across three connected areas: improving day-to-day operations, building products around unmet needs, and studying how technology affects people.
At Brave New World, I build SQL and Python pipelines, reporting datasets and Azure-based workflows. The aim is practical: reliable information, fewer manual steps and better visibility for the people running the operation.
Professional experienceI’m developing an accessibility product to help autistic people communicate their preferences, routines and support needs more clearly with families, schools and professionals.
About AutismyI’m working with a nonprofit programme creating science-backed, student-shaped life-skills learning for 16–18-year-olds preparing for life beyond the classroom.

I’ve spent years chasing ideas, buying domains, and building things nobody asked for. Maybe I was looking in the wrong place.
