Small. Sharp. Useful. I do short talks on web performance, accessibility, front end engineering, and building sites that load fast, work for everyone, and stay maintainable. Expect real examples, clear principles, and a few opinionated takes where the industry keeps making the same mistakes for fun.

My talks are open to all experience levels, and all job roles, but they're especially useful if you think you've already got everything covered.
Book me
- Remote or in-person. talks range from 10-30 minutes - plus additional time for Q&A/ranting.
- Yorkshire-based but I'll travel if the event feels right and the location is do-able. And if there's good pizza/burgers and a captive audience.
Tech setup
- If it's under bright lights, please let me know so I can wear shorts.
- I run it from Keynote on my MacBook. USB-C works best.
- If you need me to bring extra cables or stuff, please let me know!
