About

I’m a developer/engineer working mostly on web and mobile projects. I’m currently based in Bangkok, Thailand, but most of my work is remote.

Currently, I am working with several freelance clients to build and maintain their applications. Additionally, I love building my own apps for things that align with my interests and ethics. My preferred stack is Ruby/Ruby on Rails, but I’ve also got a lot of JavaScript/Node.js work under my belt.

Outside of work I’m passionate about fitness (running, muay thai), making video documentaries on YouTube and slow-travelling the world.
