Software developer, systems thinker, and quiet builder of useful things.
I'm Jamie, a UK-based developer with a decade of experience crafting web apps, tools, and infrastructure that quietly power real-world impact. I've worked across the stack, from Laravel applications to React interfaces, always with a focus on accessibility, maintainability, and user empowerment.
