About me

I build software
teams use every day.

I'm a full-stack developer and Head of IT at Route2Uni International Group, building backend-heavy CRM platforms and the cloud infrastructure they run on.

I architect Node.js, NestJS and Next.js systems on PostgreSQL, Firebase and MongoDB, exposed through REST APIs, and run them on AWS. Right now I lead the CRM platform rebuild at Route2Uni (50+ staff, 30+ partner integrations) and a CRM and compliance portal for Dreams Care Homes in the UK, as both engineer and technical lead.

I started in IT support in 2023, joined Route2Uni in 2025 as IT Officer for the UK and Nepal teams, and have led its IT department since February 2026.
