01 About

10+ years crafting
digital products
that matter.

My work sits at the intersection of healthcare technology, education platforms, and full-stack development.

Currently at Healthengine, building technology that connects patients with healthcare providers across Australia.

Background in game development shaped my approach to creating engaging, user-focused applications. Open source contributor and mentor to emerging engineers. Experience with many frameworks including Expo, Next.js, Rails, .NET, Laravel and many more. I enjoy working on applications that solve real world problems.

Featured · Founder & Engineer

BirdUp.

An Australian-first birding app I designed and built end to end.

A field notebook and field guide that also scouts what's worth looking for nearby. It's an offline-first React Native app on a Rails 8 and PostGIS backend, with AI that identifies birds from a photo using the species that actually live near you and what's in season. Sensitive species have their locations hidden automatically.

Works without signal

Log a sighting anywhere, with no connection. It syncs once you're back online.

Location-aware AI

Snap a photo and BirdUp suggests the species, weighing what actually lives near you at that time of year.

Conservation first

Locations of threatened species stay hidden, even from the AI.
