Kathmandu to the Sunshine Coast, by way of shipping things.

I started at Hilife building field-sales and logistics software in Nepal. Three hundred sales officers used the app I worked on, walking routes of thirty shops a day on cheap Android phones with unreliable signal. That job taught me more about resilience than any architecture diagram: if the sync is not offline-tolerant, the order is simply lost, and someone does not get paid.

Then two consumer social apps for the London market at Techjar — Appetite and Mifu, each past ten thousand downloads with a couple of thousand people opening them daily. Serverless on AWS, geospatial clustering over a whole city, group chat, and enough third-party API integration to develop strong opinions about webhook idempotency.

Now at Noize I am building Prodesk, a multi-tenant platform for brands and agencies, with white-labelled subdomains, real-time data and payment rails that reach countries Stripe does not. Alongside that I am partway through a Master of ICT at the University of the Sunshine Coast.

On the side I take on freelance work, which is where the ten five-star reviews come from — clients in seven countries, from a solo coach in Australia to a marketing team in Kazakhstan. Different scale, same job: understand the actual problem, build the smallest thing that solves it, and hand it over so well that nobody needs to call me.
