I make Android apps, websites, and everything behind the scenes that makes them work.

  1. Android app

    Most of my Android apps are built with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, with features such as maps, APIs, and secure sign-in.

  2. Backend

    I’ve built backends and other software using languages including Python, Java, C#, C, and TypeScript, with REST APIs, authentication, and databases.

  3. Website

    Most of my websites are built with TypeScript and React/Next.js, although I also work directly with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Projects

PintRunner

An Android app for organising pub golf. Plan routes, arrange events, invite friends, and discover public events nearby. I built the app, the backend and the website in full.

New Zealand and Australia routes

A client website presenting travel routes across both countries, complete with Google Maps, waypoints and bookable activities — built without a database to keep it straightforward to maintain.
