Software Developer
Hi, I’m Richard.
I build fast, maintainable web applications with modern ReactJS, TypeScript, cloud-native tools and C#. I like making complex problems feel simple and shipping things that actually solve problems.

About
I'm a software developer with a focus on building robust, maintainable applications. I care about clean APIs, sensible architectures, and making sure what we ship is easy to work on six months later.
Over the past few years I've worked across the stack: front-end (React, TypeScript, Tailwind), back-end (Node.js, .NET, REST APIs), and infrastructure (Docker, CI/CD, cloud hosting). I like owning problems from idea to deployment.
Outside of work I like exploring new technologies and relaxing with a good game.
What I'm good at
- Turning vague requirements into something concrete and shippable.
- Designing APIs and data models that don't fight you later.
- Debugging weird edge-cases and production issues without drama.

Charities & Non-profits
If you're a charity, community group or non-profit, I'm happy to talk about your project and see how I can help without the usual agency nonsense.
I know budgets are tight and time is limited. The goal is simple: build something that actually works for you, doesn't lock you in, and is realistic to maintain with the resources you have.
- Website refreshes, small microsites or simple landing pages.
- Basic donation flows, volunteer sign-up forms and contact funnels.
- Honest advice on what's worth building and what isn't.
No hard sell. If I'm not the right fit, I'll tell you straight and point you in a better direction if I can.
What the process looks like
- Quick call or email. You tell me what you're trying to do, what you have already, and what budget (if any) you're working with.
- Simple options. I'll outline 1–2 realistic options in plain English – including rough costs and timelines.
- You decide. If it sounds useful, we move ahead. If not, you at least walk away with a clearer picture and no invoice.
I'm especially keen to hear from groups working in community support, youth work, mental health, grassroots sport or local initiatives.
Contact
If you'd like to work together, have a project in mind, or just want to chat about an idea, send me an email and I'll get back to you.
