Hey, I'm Oliver.

Update 2021-12-17:: I'm in the process of re-uploading my blog. It'll be back up soon!

Passionate about both programming and education, I consider myself a dual practitioner, bringing together proven industry experience as a software engineer upon a concrete academic foundation, multiple years of classroom teaching experience, and a wealth of pastoral knowledge acquired from years of well-recognised volunteerism within student welfare and support.

By day...

I'm a full-stack software engineer at Stickee Technology, with a serious interest in building robust and innovative experiences on the web and beyond.

Some of the technologies I love: Laravel, Vue.js, Nuxt, Tailwind, and more recently, TypeScript and Inertia.js.

By night...

Mental health is a cause close to my heart. I volunteer a substantial amount of time to the Nightline Association as a Regional Coordinator, with the aim of ensuring all students in Wales have someone to talk to without judgment and in complete anonymity.

What started as a hobby project during the 2020 lockdown, I'm working on a multitude of upcoming video games under Petrobolos Games with the help of some friends.

I'm also interested in foreign languages, reading, and doing online courses.

Previously worked at...

• Arden Academy, one of the top state schools in the UK

• Amadeus IT Group, world leader of travel IT and software solutions

• Aberystywth University, leading university for student satisfaction in the UK
