I love coding, in all its forms. I code professionally and for fun.

Most of what I make is for the terminal — statuslines, colour helpers, ANSI converters. I love the terminal. I build things to make it a better experience for everyone, and to add to the ecosystem that I've used for so many years.

• I spent a decade at Lexer, a customer data platform, growing from data engineer to leading a delivery team.
• I build data pipelines and integrations for a living: ingesting messy customer data and sending audiences out to dozens of platforms.
• I've founded and led some of the core services my company runs on.
• I run training and mentor other engineers, because good tooling matters most when everyone can use it.
• Lately I've been building AI-assisted engineering tooling to help teams ship faster with less friction.
