About

Decades of experience as a senior software developer specialising in PHP, full-stack SaaS, and complete platform lifecycle architecture - including DevOps. Most often found in the terminal.

Expert in Linux server security, web application, SaaS, and website security, with a track record of discovering and responsibly disclosing vulnerabilities in critical systems.

Deep expertise in Personal Data Protection across Jersey, UK, EU, and worldwide jurisdictions. Provides both the legal/regulatory advice and the engineering work behind it - encryption at rest, secure-by-design systems, and compliant infrastructure.

Entrepreneur and founder of multiple digital businesses. Much of my work runs under white-label arrangements or NDA - building the platforms that quietly power other companies' products.

Daily user of Claude Code and the Anthropic API across every project: agentic workflows, custom skills, hooks, MCP servers, and prompt-cached pipelines. AI is a tool in the kit, not a replacement for engineering judgement - the code still has to be right.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me flying or out on the water. I hold a Commercial Pilot Licence, a Qualified Flying Instructor rating, and own my own aircraft. On the water: MCA/RYA Advanced Powerboat commercially endorsed, and several other maritime certifications - plus my own boat.
