I’m a Melbourne-based web developer, currently building exciting museum technology with ACMI.
I build web-based services using python & front-end, among other things. I’ve been working as a web developer since 2009. I like to connect with my tech community through meet-ups, Twitter & code mentoring.
I got to attend the June 2017 conference Lead Dev in London, and was assigned a guide through the scholars and guides program. It was two days of talks about what makes great development teams, and how to make good development decisions, full of immediately useful information and guiding principles.

I like to explore the field of creative coding, using OpenFrameworks, Processing, d3, web video, web audio, and whatever is at hand when I’m inspired.
I knit sweaters & scarves, and enjoy thinking about the overlaps of pixels, stitches, patterns and algorithms. I love to meet other developers who are also crafters & makers.
I enjoy teaching and mentoring in Python, Ruby, Rails & front-end, especially to groups that are marginalized in tech.
I’m involved in community groups like Stockholm Ruby, RailsGirls, ClojureBridge and more.
Reflections on things I saw along the 3-night, 4-day Three Capes Track. This was written on my phone, starting at Munroe cabin on the second night, and finished on the way home.
