Hey! This is my #Introduction 👋

I've lived in #brisbane most my life. I'm a husband and dad to two kids. I used to play tricks on them, but these days they play tricks on me.

I'm the CTO at The Lookout Way where we make a care management platform for Aged Care and NDIS service providers, workers, and families.

I make my own software too: https://antennamate.com, https://readblindly.com, and https://namestork.app.

I was previously @tatey.

Re #introduction, and faintly astonished that last time I was here we were also in election mode. I’m a uni worker, voting on climate, parenting a transitioning teen, turning the compost, hoping for change. I live in a small community by the sea that’s part of a regional city (Wollongong). My partner and amazing fierce daughters plus the transitioning lad are Wiradjuri. I keeping saying “our current government” in the hope that this turfs them out, but I’m not confident. It’s so nice to be back.
