Spencer's About Me

Hi, I'm Spencer. After years of working for a food manufacturer and then a chemical equipment supplier, I became disinterested in process engineering converted to web development, that I find much more interesting and rewarding. I am presently working for the world's largest company, developing their photos website.

Academic

After studying pure mathematics with statistics, chemistry and biology at A level I went on to study Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering at the University of Surrey.

I then took Web Development Immersive at General Assembly, London and converted to being a web developer.

Web Developer

I mainly work with Ruby on Rails and React JS. See my blog posts for some of my hobby applications I have developed with these technologies.

Interests

I enjoy running, training frequently with my running club and compete in my local parkrun, local 10ks, 10 miles, 1/2 marathons and marathons. I am creating some "technology" projects with some friends. I have learnt French to a proficient level and basic German, both in my own time by self study and attending evening classes.
