No-nonsense engineering for a web that's forgotten the basics.
The web is cluttered with over-engineered rubbish. I strip away the bloat to deliver clean code and blazing speeds. No fluff, no excuses, just engineering that works.

Frontend Specialist

I've spent decades navigating the ever-changing landscape of web development, from the templates of the past to the "blazing fast" React websites of today and the WordPress clunkers inbetween. I'm not here to use jargon to make myself feel important. I'm here to bridge the gap between design and technical reality with clean code and a healthy dose of skepticism for over-engineered solutions. I build premium software for clients who are tired of excuses.
In my world, resourcefulness beats academia every day of the week. I leverage AI and my years of experience to build at pace. I'm not afraid to use the latest tech to get you from A to B, because at the end of the day, you aren't paying for my struggle, you're paying for my expertise and a finished product that works.
The Gear
Most people post their desk setups to look like a lifestyle magazine. I'm just here to ship code. This is the clobber I use to drag legacy projects into the 21st century and keep modern builds from becoming bloated disasters. It's clean, it's fast, and unlike half the industry, it's actually productive.

100% real, totally unverified quotes from people who've definitely visited this site.
If I'd had this dashboard in 1940, we'd have been home by Christmas.
I asked for a faster horse; Paul gave me a web app that actually loads in under a second. Absolute filth!.
I am just going outside to check the server logs, and may be some time.

Let's build something
that's not utterly awful.
If you've got a project that actually matters and a budget that isn't a joke, get in touch. I don't do "discovery sessions" to find myself; I do engineering to find solutions. Drop me a line or use the form. Just don't ask me how to do my job once we start.
