Hi, I'm Mike 👋

I’m a passionate frontend developer who enjoys building thoughtful, user-focused experiences. Before career changing, my background was in music and I've worked across sale and teaching rolls, which helped me develop strong soft skills including adaptability, collaboration, and confidence in public speaking and sharing ideas. These experiences shape how I approach development today — with a people-first mindset and an emphasis on clarity and teamwork. Outside of coding, I volunteer at CoderDojo, enjoy tinkering with Raspberry Pis, and help organise local tech events. I value community, sharing knowledge, and bringing people together around technology.

Skills

In addition to excellent soft skills, I have a strong technical foundation in TypeScript and JavaScript, with experience building responsive interfaces using HTML and CSS. I have working knowledge of React, some experience with Python, and regularly use Figma and Canva for design and prototyping. I’m a fast learner who enjoys continuously improving both my technical and creative skill sets.

Testimonies

Cora Marcu

Software Enginer

"Mike showed enthusiasm about learning, as well as perseverence when running into debugging issues. He always made sure to understand the root cause of any problem in order to solve it logically and methodically".

Dan Hembery

Software Engineering Squad Lead

"I taught Mike during the final part of the Command Shift Software Engineering course, where students are introduced to a Frontend framework (React) and work in groups to produce a final project. Mike was a pleasure to work with, he was always keen to expand his knowledge, involved himself in group discussions and quickly demonstrated a solid understanding of React.".
