Now (October 2025 edition)

This page shows what I’m doing currently, if you have your own website, you should make your own too.

Introduction

It’s been a while since I last updated this page, a lot has happened in the inbetween!

I graduated from the University of Nottingham with a degree in Computer Science in July 2025. I’ve had a nice break over the summer, including a visit to Norway (highly recommended).

Python Discord

Python Discord DevOps is still going strong, we’ve slowed down from rapidly adding features and moved to a more maintenance mode. We still have a lot of fun working on it, and I’m still very proud of what we’ve built.

I spent a lot of time working on the integration of our home-grown SSO solution, which includes SAML and LDAP support along with an integrated email system.

Most of this activity is still ongoing in our infra repository if you are interested.

Owl Corp

Myself, Chris and Johannes have been working on some projects for Owl Corp, our unincorporated holding zone for various personal projects.

Chris and I have been working on polonium, a Discord ModMail bot written to replace some existing deprecated solutions. It’s still in early development, but we’re hoping to have a working version soon.

Johannes and I have been working on a project called lithium. We want to create a modern, high-performance mail authentication daemon (SPF, DKIM, DMARC). Hopefully we will end up with an all-in-one solution as opposed to the current fragmented landscape.

NSTV & URN

Graduating from University also brought the end of my tenure and involvement with University Radio Nottingham (URN) and Nottingham Student TV (NSTV). I had a great time working with both societies and made some lifelong friends.

I look forward to seeing where the new committees take both societies in the future, and I am ever thankful for the opportunities afforded to me during my time there. I am also looking forward to returning in future as an alumnus to help out where I can and deliver training.

Both societies were a cornerstone of my university experience and are an extremely valuable asset to the University of Nottingham and University of Nottingham Students’ Union.

What’s next?

I have an exciting new role lined up to start in December of 2025, which includes a move to London, nothing to announce publicly yet but keep an eye on my LinkedIn for the exciting news soon!
