Advanced .NET Developer & Technology Enthusiast
Welcome to my corner of the internet! I'm a passionate developer who loves exploring the intersection of technology, personal growth, and sharing knowledge with the community.
Professional Journey
As an Advanced .NET Developer, I've spent years crafting robust, scalable applications and staying at the forefront of modern development practices. My expertise spans from traditional .NET Framework to cutting-edge .NET technologies, with a particular passion for clean architecture and performance optimisation.
I'm also deeply involved in the AI development revolution, leveraging tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and other AI-powered development environments to enhance productivity and code quality.
RichCode Podcast
Through my podcast, I have the privilege of interviewing developers, entrepreneurs, and tech enthusiasts who share their unique journeys and insights. Each conversation is an opportunity to learn something new and share valuable knowledge with the community.
The podcast focuses on real stories from real people in tech, covering everything from career transitions to technical deep-dives and personal growth in the industry.
Coaching & Mentoring
I believe in giving back to the developer community through personalised coaching and mentoring. Whether you're a junior developer looking to level up your skills or an experienced professional seeking guidance on career advancement, I'm here to help.
My coaching approach is practical, focused, and tailored to your specific goals and challenges.
Personal Life
Born and raised in Newcastle upon Tyne, I'm a proud dad to a football-mad young lad who's just as passionate about the beautiful game as his old man. We're both lifelong, dedicated Newcastle United fans - proper Geordies through and through! I've supported the Toon through thick and thin, including two relegations, and was backing them long before the Saudi takeover.
I'm also working on my personal fitness journey and recently took up boxing at Gosforth Gym Group. I believe in the importance of maintaining physical and mental well-being alongside professional development, and I enjoy exploring new technologies, reading about productivity and personal development, and sharing my experiences through my personal blog posts.
