Full-stack web developer · Isle of Wight, UK
Building production web apps with React, Next.js, and TypeScript. Through Emberzo I've shipped client Shopify storefronts and community platforms — and I'm looking for a junior developer role on a product team in the UK.
I'm a web developer on the Isle of Wight, building for the web since 2021. My first real web work was college work experience with The Ecology Centre in Scotland, where I helped maintain their public site. Through my studio Emberzo I've also shipped client and community projects — from React and Next.js builds to custom Shopify storefronts. I'm now focused on joining a team as a junior developer where I can keep growing, while Emberzo remains available for selected freelance work.
2026
Community platform & product contributions
Rebuilt the public community site and contributed full-stack features to the forum and player app — map, daily rewards, Stripe store, and reliability fixes.
Result — A clearer mobile-friendly community presence, a working store path, and a tighter rewards/map loop members can actually use.
2026
Lead-generation product site
A conversion-focused site for trades and property maintenance businesses — service clarity, local trust signals, and a simple quote path.
Result — A straightforward, conversion-ready site pattern that presents services clearly and captures better leads.
2025
Paid client · Shopify
Shopify customisation and catalog rollout for a fireworks retailer preparing for seasonal demand and a wider product range.
Result — Launched with a cleaner shopping experience and stronger operational support for peak seasonal sales.
Stack I use in production work and can walk through in an interview.
Client delivery, charity web work, and deliberate full-stack practice — from college work experience through to shipping for clients.
