Searching for an experienced full-stack web developer?

G'day! I'm Ben

I'm a full-stack developer specialising in NodeJS and web technologies, such as React, TypeScript, Vue, Svelte, Electron, and more!

I'm currently based in Melbourne, Australia, and have been in the field for over three years, refining my craft and continuing to explore my passion of software development.

I originally started programming as a hobby back in early high school, where I started learning and writing Java plugins for Minecraft. Afterwards, I quickly fell in love with the domain of web development and design, and have spent a number of years since learning and exploring this vast domain.

Since 2019, I've worked under Leidos Australia, serving as a full-stack developer across multiple projects, learning and refining my skills in an enterprise capacity to deliver stable, quality software products.
