I started as a developer many years ago, like most of us in the CMS space, it was initially with Joomla, or as it was still called back then, mambo. Over the years my focus began to expand outside of the CMS world, spent some time as a Full-Stack developer working PHP and even dabbling a bit in the DevOps space.
I soon, however, realized my true passion lies in the Front-end space and began to focus on the visual, end-user-facing aspects of the web, with a balance between CSS and jQuery, soon after that though I began to focus even further into pure Javascript especially current and continuous evolution of it with next.
Much of my focus has been with React, I have built and even architected a number of React web applications within the Finance, Insurance and communication industries.
My more recent focus has been in the mobile space, having spent the last 18 months or so, working primarily on a white-labeled, SaaS Flutter application built with a strong focus on TDD/DDD on top of the BLoC Architecture.
Outside of the work space I spend a lot of time out on the trails, trying to find that balance between Trail Running and Mountain biking, which I find are among the best ways to debug those really challenging problems, and the ones related to code and just get away, disconnect and reset.
