Me, Myself and I

Hey 👋 I'm Edd and I've been messing with technology for as long as I can remember and since 2017, have been professionally. I started with javascript animations and python web scrapers, fascinated how the virtual and real world could come together.

Bitcoin came into my life around 2012 when my father came home babbling about some internet currency that "the guys in the office were going crazy for". From there, I was hooked.

I started exploring battery tech between careers, becoming totally fanatical with repurposing and upcycling them. I don't think the importance of energy storage can be overstated for the future

With an education in politics, I come at software from a slightly different angle. I love building products for people and with people. I thrive in colaberative teams; researching, designing and building end to end features.

A flavour of my toolset:

  • React
  • Typescript
  • Node
  • AWS
  • Docker
  • Tailwind
