hey, i'm ryan👋
I'm a software engineer currently living in London, United Kingdom. I really enjoy solving weird problems and building cool shit, whether that's at work or in my spare time.
I'm currently working at Cloudflare, where I'm helping build a better internet and working on developer tooling.
Outside of work, I'm a colossal nerd and spend a lot of my time playing video games.
