Disclaimer
My website is primarily a blog that represents my personal opinions and experiences. It does not represent the views of my employer or any other person, with the exception of individual posts or individual written interviews written by guest authors or conducted with a guest.
Apart from my professional experience as a web developer/software engineer, and wide knowledge and experience as a ballerina, dancer, concert photographer, traveller, powerlifter, and mental health awareness advocate, I am not a professional or an expert in the topics I write about. I cannot guarantee that any information I share will produce the same result for you as it did for myself, so it is in your best interests to contact a professional for further advice or information.
All content is up to date at the time of writing and I make no guarantees that the content is current at the time you are viewing it.
I enjoy receiving emails from people who read my blog, and I welcome feedback. While I aim to respond to these communications when I have something to say, I am under no obligation to respond.
