What I'm doing now
The big picture of what I'm focused on at the moment.
💻 Work
I've recently been promoted to Staff Engineer and work on Umbraco's AI Team, part of the Commercial Products team, working primarily on Forms, Automate, AI tooling and umbraco.com.
- Forms: we've recently launched 17.6.0 and 18.2.0 with a brand new form lifecycle feature which includes versioning, audit history, audit history and a recycle bin!
- Automate: working on new features and bug fixing
- AI tooling: working on what we're termed AI Ops, a reusable set of skills and routines to speed up our development workflow
👶 Family
Getting to know our daughter, who arrived in May 2026 and has changed our whole world!
🏃 Running
Trying to get back into running after a few slower months. Typically running 2x 5km a week where I can.
🌱 Community
Still working in the background on BlockPreview, mostly just bug fixing rather than any major updates. Will be looking at a v19 version in December!
🗓️ Coming up
- : speaking at UMBUK26 about Automate in Minutes, Not Sprints: Introducing Umbraco Automate
