I turn messy business problems into practical systems people can actually use — from enterprise insurance flows to ERP rollouts, e-commerce storefronts, and SaaS products.
Practical systems, not noise.
Brisbane, Australia
I like turning messy business problems into practical systems people can actually use.
Today I'm a Front-End Developer at A&G Insurance Australia, working on Angular applications for car and home insurance quote and policy flows across Budget Direct and partner brands — ING, Virgin, Coles, and Ozicare.
Before Australia I worked across software, systems, and operations: rolling out Odoo ERP for an engineering company with no central system, building Shopify storefronts for luxury fragrance brands, and supporting business-critical IT in a legal environment. The thread through all of it — understand how the business works, find the friction, and ship the tool that makes it cleaner to run.
I also build with AI in the loop — I lean heavily on LLMs and modern AI tooling to design, prototype, debug, and ship, and it's become a core part of how I work day to day rather than a novelty on the side.
I work with AI models every day — designing, prototyping, debugging, and shipping with LLMs in the loop. It's how I move fast without cutting corners, and a genuine edge in how much I can take on solo.
The same instinct, whatever the stack.
Insurance flows, an ERP rollout, a Shopify storefront, a dealership — different surfaces, one way of working underneath.
Understand the business first
I start by learning how the business actually runs — where the friction is, what's costing time, what people quietly work around. The tool comes after the understanding, not before it.
Ship practical systems, not noise
I'd rather ship one thing people genuinely use than a pile of features that only look good in a demo. The goal is always a cleaner business to run, not a longer changelog.
AI in the loop, not on autopilot
I build with LLMs every day — designing, prototyping, debugging, shipping. It's how I move fast without cutting corners, and how I take on more solo than I otherwise could.
Own it end to end
From the database to the deploy to the customer enquiry, I'm comfortable owning the whole line — which is how my independent products and client work actually get finished, not just started.

Every tool, role, and product I've worked on is part of one connected system. Follow a technology through the companies that used it, into the domains it served.
Where I've worked
- Build and maintain Angular apps for car and home insurance quote & policy flows across Budget Direct and partners (ING, Virgin, Coles, Ozicare).

- Migrated 30 mailboxes from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365 with zero data loss, and supported the wider changeover.
- Built and maintained 3–5 Shopify storefronts for luxury fragrance brands across regional and international markets.
- Implemented custom themes, product pages, and e-commerce features focused on presentation, localisation, and conversion.
- Provided day-to-day IT support across hardware, software, networking, accounts, and office systems.
- Built the infrastructure and support foundation that led into later software, ERP, and full-stack work.

What I run on my own.
Products and ventures I build and run outside the day job — focused on practical operations, automation, and shipping end to end.
Vehicle Inspection SaaS
A solo-built, multi-tenant SaaS for vehicle inspection workflows — Postgres row-level security for tenant isolation, a BullMQ + Puppeteer PDF reporting pipeline, and a full production run on Fly.io with CI/CD, backups, and observability. Sunset in 2026 when it didn't find paying customers; the build is the proof.
Brizcars
A used-car dealership in Windsor, Brisbane. Working closely with the owner, I built and maintain the website on a custom codebase I wrote myself, and manage stock listings and customer enquiries — the digital side of the business.
Designed, built & shipped.
