About

I build things for the web.

I'm David, a senior front-end engineer building for the web since 2010 — from TUI, through agency life at NDP, Mirum and Appnovation, to leading the front-end of Master of Malt's headless replatform today.

My sweet spot is where commerce, content and the people who run them meet: Next.js storefronts on BigCommerce, Contentful and Sanity models editors actually enjoy, and component libraries that keep design and engineering speaking the same language.

Away from the screen you'll find me on a hockey pitch or a cricket field, and occasionally attempting to swing a golf club.
