ABOUT ME
Full Stack Software Engineer
Full Stack Software Engineer
Active, and self-taught professional web developer with 20 years of experience, with proven abilities to adapt to a variety of business requirements, through multiple contracted positions in both the UK and internationally.
Proven experience leading small and large-scale project environments, within virtual teams and through remote working, balancing multiple time-zones and team skill sets, leading the organisation and deployment of contractual deliverables in a timely, professional manner.
Championing frontend practices where applicable, I am proactive in supporting my team through various issues which may arise, where I have often delved into back-end code to ensure full feature delivery.
I bring a unique energy to the teams I have worked with and can quickly adapt to the needs of those around me. As a keen learner in self-development, I have given several talks about Event Sourced data in Baltimore USA and Manchester UK, Password-less authentication and Hugo Static Site Generation at UK and International meet-up groups.

Kyle was very friendly and very helpful with the problem I had. He was able to help me understand and see what was going on. I also talked with him briefly about setting up a weekly "check-in" were he could help me on a regular basis figure out any problems I was having.

Excellent work, quick turnaround. I needed someone to review a code repo built by outsourced developers. Kyle reviewed the code base and found several issues along with improvements and workarounds to the problems. Give him a try.

Brought into the Funeral Care department to assist on the digital solutions (Guardian) product. I have delivered some of the first digital pubic customer-facing products this department has released. I heavily involved myself in the private frontend community. My suggestions for best-practices have since been implemented within the design systems and component libraries across the organisation.
