Track Record

I've worked with over 40 clients across government, enterprise, and startups. Everything from rapid prototypes to production systems.

40+ clients across government, media, telecoms, banking, manufacturing, and education. I lead teams and work closely with stakeholders. I've built secure CI/CD pipelines, microservices, and cloud infrastructure that scales. For one client, automation and better cloud architecture cut their infrastructure costs by around £3,000 a month.

Samuel in Scotland

Scotland was our wedding chapter. It keeps me grounded and reminds me what matters when work gets noisy.

London was an amazing art exhibition and a reminder that good design and storytelling matter as much as technical quality.
