About

Soon to be a Sixth Form student at The Canterbury Academy with a background spanning web development, embedded systems, 3D printing, and consumer electronics repair. I run two small businesses and build hardware and software projects independently, from custom PCBs and firmware to full production web applications.

Businesses

VoxForm - UK-based 3D print-on-demand service (co-founder). Designed and built the complete order and payment platform: PHP/MySQL backend, Stripe payment processing, and a transactional email infrastructure (PHPMailer, S/MIME signing, BIMI).

Tech Repair Solutions - Device repair service, Whitstable. Mail-in and drop-off repairs for phones, laptops, tablets, and consoles, covering diagnostics, parts sourcing, and customer-facing workflows.

Selected projects

  • Custom mechanical macro pad - 4×3 Cherry MX switch matrix with rotary encoder and SSD1306 OLED display, built around an RP2354A microcontroller. Custom PCB (KiCad), 3D-printed enclosure (Fusion 360), and MicroPython firmware including USB HID implementation.
  • Comment Remover and File Coverter - Published on the Microsoft Store, built with WinUI 3 / C#.
  • Self-hosted home infrastructure - Home Assistant, WireGuard VPN, AdGuard Home, and containerised services running on Docker/Raspberry Pi, including custom Home Assistant add-ons I built: Mysterium (MYST) nodes and Spoolman (3D printing filament management).
