Hey, I'm Chris, a Senior React Engineer brewing coffcode in London ☕️🇬🇧. Probably sipping on my ~6th coffee for today.

I've got 25+ years of turning coffee into code. I've been crafting user experiences that even my grandma finds cool. Rapid prototyping, swift release cycles, AI agents, Agile, KISS, DRY, SOLID, YAGNI, BLA BLA you name it.

I play well with others but also fine on my own. I love pair programming, mentoring, improving. Furthermore, I am that guy with the jokes.

Agentic workflows and RAG, AI all over the place, with React, React Native/Expo, Next.js, JS/TS, and a sprinkle of Node/Express/Fastify (serverless too) for when I'm feeling backend-ish with MongoDB, Supabase or PostgreSQL. Redux was alright, zustand is way cooler, jotai isn't too bad. Docker, Jenkins, Playwright & Cypress, Jest & Vitest & RTL (testing is caring, after all). Figma, Sketch, InVision. MUI, Mantine, Tailwind, Shadcn/Radix. Big Python admirer, I'd ideally like to continue my love story with LangChain.

Father of two amazing kids, I have a nutcase of a widog. Keen snowboarder, strong-ish chess player, decent photographer, a way better/faster cook, and I love reading philosophy and geopolitics. Peanut butter lover.
