About

Me? I'm just a front-end developer / webmaster from Franschhoek who used to drive all the way to Stellenbosch for Burger King, sadly it closed down.

I'm currently between jobs where I spend my time exercising aka not eating Burgerking, reading and applying for jobs, obviously.

Things I'm good at:

• Coding, check out what's going on under the hood by pressing F12 to open the built-in dev tools in your browser of choice, fingers crossed that it isn't IE.
• Admin, keeping your sites in tip-top shape.
• Loyalty, when you hire me you can count on me sticking with the business through thick and thin.
• Getting the job done, exactly as it states, I get it done.

Things I'm not good at:

• Design, as you can clearly see by the "design" of this site.
• Small talk
• Public speaking
• Rummikub, my finance beats me all the time.

Things I like:

• Gaming, went back to playing Grim Dawn after getting the Forgotten Gods expansion, and now patch v1.1.6.0 dropped so I'm hunting for the new totems.
• Mountain biking, just had my wheels fixed but the bike needs a servce too, there's always something, sigh. I'm currently obsessed with the Dream Builds channel on youtube. Talk about pretty.
• Craft Beer, No doubt we are spoilt for choice here in the Western Cape, but the uncrowned king surely is Soul Barrel Brewing.
• Music, been into metal for as long as I can remember. Here's a Spotify playlist.
• Cooking, I made some pretty sweet Pasta Carbonara the other day.

Things I dislike:

• Rockstar coders
• Marketing buzzwords
• Politics
• The petrol price
• Facebook
