I'm a full-stack engineer based in Melbourne, Australia. I build and vary in web experiences, APIs, data models, and the odd hard problem that fits no category. I work with clients and teams to bring ambitious ideas to life — from first wireframe to production deploy.

What gets me working late isn't the framework of the week; it's interesting ideas and problems.

If you have an ambitious idea and want it built fast, solid and unlike anything template-shaped — we should talk.

Sels Attire — luxury apparel hire boutique

An editorial storefront for a womenswear hire boutique: cinematic card-stack landing, thirty-plus look pages, and a hire bag — typography-led and unapologetically fashion.

  • persistent transparent header that themes itself to the active page
  • password-gated admin dashboard with live KPIs, charts, inventory alerts, and a CRM view of customers and enquiries
  • full accessibility pass — keyboard nav, reduced-motion fallback, zero layout shift

PROJECT-19 — RB19 cinematic showcase

A scroll-driven 3D showcase for Oracle Red Bull Racing's RB19 — the 21-wins-in-a-season car — one continuous camera lap through a black studio garage, hero title to red-glow contact.

  • oversized RB19 title flies off the hero and docks pixel-exact into the glassmorphism nav mid-approach
  • live Three.js scene — 3D car, HDR studio lighting, reflective floor — with the camera keyframed per scene on scroll percentage, GPU-interpolated between slides
  • inertial scroll with magnetic beats: a flick keeps gliding and always settles on a slide, never mid-sweep; no-WebGL browsers get a prebaked frame-scrub fallback
