Available to hire
I’m a seasoned software developer with over a decade of experience building scalable web applications and leading cross-functional teams. I’ve worked across PHP frameworks (Laravel, Symfony, CodeIgniter) and modern JavaScript stacks (React, AngularJS, jQuery), and I routinely upgrade legacy systems, design robust APIs, and implement automated testing and CI practices.
Outside of work, I’m a keen runner and I enjoy playing guitar, reading, and watching films.
