i'm Michael
I’m a Software Engineer with a passion for React, Typescript, Redux and Serverless AWS. I work on a large-scale application used by some of the UK’s largest businesses.
I work mostly on the frontend but when working on the backend I use Lambdas, Dynamo DB, CloudFormation with the Serverless framework.

React and Typescript
When working on the frontend I use React, Typescript, Redux, ES6+, SCSS, BEM and Tailwind. I use React Hooks, the Context API, and create animations with GSAP 3 and Lottie-Web. This site uses Gatsby with Headless Craft CMS using the GraphQL API.

WebGL and Three.js
2D things on the web are cool but 3D += more cool. I Like to learn and apply the newest innovations in web development, like interactive 3D experiences. Try interacting with the big shiny exploding thingy for bonus fun.

From Design To Code
I create my own designs or work with designers to bring their artistic vision to life in a way that works across platforms and devices. I've worked with talented designers translating their designs into production ready code. I use Adobe XD to create the designs for my own projects.

Mobile First
I develop with a mobile first approach and ensure the finished product looks great at any screen size. I use Tailwind CSS and develop reusable BEM components starting with the mobile design and working my way up to the desktop.
