At the beginning of 2019, after 9 years teaching business English in Paris and facing the closure of a cold-pressed juice company I'd set up, I was looking for a new direction.

A succesion of synchronous events led me to development. I was able to apply for and get on a course in PHP focused web and mobile web development. I followed this up with a course in Full Stack JavaScript development.

I have been coding nearly every day for 5 years now and have worked on a range of projects in different stacks. The past year I have been working full-time at GoldBroker as a Frontend developer. I'm currently helping them build a design system and redo the frontend in React, Next and TypeScript.

Outside of work I enjoy road biking, swimming and reading.
