Senior Frontend Engineer · London
I've spent 12 years building products people actually use — from consumer focused platforms retail like M&S and LEGO to fintech platforms handling high end transactions for banks like Wells Fargo. I care more about getting things right than getting them done fast.
About
I'm a senior frontend engineer based in London. Over 12 years I've worked across agencies and consultancies — including TMW and AND Digital and Motive Partners — and in-house product teams. Clients have ranged from LEGO and Benefit Cosmetics to Marks & Spencer and Wells Fargo.
I currently lead frontend on a cross-functional team, owning features end-to-end from requirements to delivery. I'm equally comfortable heads-down in a codebase and helping less experienced engineers grow.
Outside work
What I care about
Code quality
Readable, testable, maintainable. Fast and wrong isn't a win.
Accessibility
Not an afterthought. Inclusive, fast experiences are part of the job from day one.
Mentoring
Growth is continuous and best done together — in both directions.
Team cohesion
The best teams are collaborative, psychologically safe, and genuinely curious.

Work
A solo project to build and publish a React DataGrid component library from scratch — sorting, filtering, grouping, virtual scrolling, inline editing, and an AI natural-language query bar. Now on npm and in production use.
A data-driven F1 Fantasy analysis app built with React, TypeScript, and the Jolpica F1 API — developed end-to-end with GitHub Copilot as a co-pilot, not a crutch.
Frontend engineering on a production multi-tenant offer management platform — React, TypeScript, and TanStack Query over an event-driven AWS pipeline.
