Hey, I'm Taine.

I'm a Software Developer

I'm a software developer with 3+ years of experience building web apps and crafting data-rich intuitive user experiences. I've led flagship projects and developed reusable React component libraries to enhance efficiency and maintainability. Outside of the dev world, you'll find me with my camera, at the nearest bouldering gym or combining both. This summer, I'm making an exciting move from London to Copenhagen.

About.

Currently, I'm at 80 Technologies, where I design scalable web applications and component libraries, working across insurance and financial markets. Before that, I contributed to full-stack development at AskYourTeam, improving both the performance and user experience of our applications using React, Redux, and Ruby on Rails.

Outside of work, I'm passionate about photography and bouldering. Both activities keep me creative and help me bring a fresh perspective to my development work. This summer, I'm making an exciting move from London to Copenhagen, ready for the next chapter in both my professional and personal life.
