I'm writing a new book: Rapid Fullstack Development. Learn from my years of experience and become a better developer.

My second book, Bootstrapping Microservices, is a practical and project-based guide to building distributed applications with microservices.

My first book Data Wrangling with JavaScript is a comprehensive overview of working with data in JavaScript.

Data-Forge Notebook is my notebook-style application for data transformation, analysis and transformation in JavaScript.

I have a long history in software development with many years in apps, web apps, backends, serious games, simulations and VR. Making technology work for business is what I do: building bespoke software solutions that span multiple platforms.

I have years of experience managing development teams, preparing technical strategies and creation of software products. I can explain complicated technology to senior management. I have delivered cutting-edge products in fast-paced and high-pressure environments. I know how to focus and prioritize to get the important things done.
