I build web products
people actually want to use.
Hi, I'm Alex — a Full Stack Developer with 5+ years of experience. I specialise in Laravel and React, turning complex problems into clean, performant interfaces.
A developer who cares
about the details.
I started as a self-taught developer, which means I've had to be intentional about every concept I've learned. That mindset has shaped how I work: methodical, curious, and always asking "why" before "how."
Today I work with startups and established companies to design and build web applications that are fast, well-structured, and genuinely useful. I believe good software is invisible — it just works, and gets out of the way.
When I'm not writing code, you'll find me reading about product design, contributing to open-source, or walking around London with a strong coffee.
