About
I have a psychology degree and three years in disability and mental health support. I got into development to build for businesses that do good, and to fill gaps I kept seeing in the fields I worked in.
Most developers haven't worked in the fields their software is meant to serve. I have, and that changes how I build.
My projects reflect that: task management built around how ADHD brains actually work, tools for support workers that address gaps I saw firsthand, websites built with care.
02 — Projects
Each project here is built with care, given the time and attention it takes to reflect the quality of the service behind it.
Tools for the support sector
Products built from three years of frontline disability and mental health support.
SupportBridge
Support-work coordination platform
In development
A cross-platform system connecting support workers, clients, families, and managers. Support networks run on handovers, group texts, and memory - SupportBridge gives them structured notes and shared visibility instead. Designed from three years working inside these workflows.
Vale
Habit & Recovery Tracker
In closed testing
A Flutter harm-reduction habit and recovery tracker for people working through addiction and behaviour change. Built with a full design system, SQLite local persistence, and patterns drawn from three years of frontline support work - scaffolded goals, low-friction check-ins, and progress framing that does not punish slips.
Focus
ADHD Task Manager
A task manager built around how ADHD brains actually plan - a NOW / SOON / LATER bucket system instead of due dates, with Firestore sync. Built to address gaps I kept hitting in mainstream productivity apps.
Selected client work
Drama Geeks
A children's performing arts school in South Shields needed a website that felt warm and trustworthy to parents - not corporate and not cluttered. Full redesign and build in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, with class pages, show listings, fees, and a booking flow structured around how parents actually decide.
Rhythm for the Soul
A therapeutic drumming facilitator and world musician needed a site that felt atmospheric and distinctive. Full design and build in Astro and Tailwind CSS v4, with service pages spanning schools, rest homes, disability programmes, and live events, structured around how different clients decide to make a booking.
Sensoma
Healthcare practitioner website
A holistic massage practice where the audience is often anxious or in physical discomfort. The brief was calm over complexity. I built a quiet, accessible site that gets first-time clients from landing to booking with as little cognitive load as possible.
Other projects
Design exploration and academic work.
Behaviour-Focused Fitness App
UX & Interaction Design
Mobile and desktop fitness app design applying behavioural psychology to habit formation. Scaffolded goal-setting, progressive disclosure, and feedback loops drawn from how I built support plans in frontline disability work - meet people where they are, then scale up.
Tourism Management System
Group academic project
Team build of a visitor management system for a heritage park, supporting multiple stakeholder roles. I led the backend in C# and PostgreSQL, designing the data model and API layer that the frontend team consumed.

Let's Talk
Currently available for new projects.
If you work in disability or health services and need digital tools built by someone who has worked in the sector - or you are a small business or practitioner that needs a website that actually works for the people using it - I would like to hear from you.
