Senior Full-Stack Developer & Technical Writer

My journey into web development started when I was 16 (almost 20 years ago!), and I've been hooked ever since. Based in Derbyshire, England, I'm a full-stack developer with a simple goal: to help new developers get started. My goal at CodeShack is to offer top-notch, useful, and to-the-point tutorials that rise above the crowds and provide you with the skills necessary to succeed in this field.

I graduated with a degree in Computer Science in 2013 and have spent nearly two decades in the web development scene, turning complex problems into clean, efficient code. My expertise lies in building robust applications from the ground up, specializing in backend technologies like PHP and Python with frameworks such as Laravel, alongside a deep understanding of MySQL databases and modern JavaScript for dynamic front-end experiences.

At its core, my work is about empowerment. I firmly believe that with passion and determination, anyone can code. That's why I set out to create content that is not only informative but also readable and inspiring to all. Not only do I enjoy doing it, but I also enjoy the positive feedback I receive in the comments section. It encourages me to keep going!

When I'm not coding or writing, I'm usually outdoors. I love hiking and cycling through the beautiful Peak District, and I'm passionate about general fitness and exercise. I also have a relentless curiosity for discovering new technology! Constantly exploring emerging tools and trends to stay at the forefront of the industry and bring the very best insights to my tutorials.
