I'm a Software Engineer based in London - I build full stack applications for the mobile and web.

I can be known online as _Rigellute_ - pronounced `Ryjel lute`. I chose this name since [Rigel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigel), a bright star in the constellation of Orion, is one of my favourite stars in the night sky. And [lute](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lute), because I play one!

I am experienced with Javascript, React, React Native, GraphQL, Postgres and AWS to name a few.

I am the author of [spotify-tui](https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui) - a Spotify client for the terminal written in Rust 🚀.

I want to be using Rust full time! Please get in touch if you are using it!

When I'm not programming, I play music (piano, guitar and lute), build mechanical keyboards, read books, swing kettle bells, go rock climbing, gaze at the stars, paint with watercolours and spend time with friends and family.<commit_msg>Rework about page<commit_after>---

### Rigellute

I can be known online as **Rigellute** - pronounced `Ryjel lute`.

I chose this name since [Rigel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigel), a bright star in the constellation of Orion, is one of my favourite stars in the night sky. And [lute](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lute), because I play one!

When I'm not programming, I play music (piano, guitar and lute), build mechanical keyboards, read books, swing kettle bells, go rock climbing, gaze at the stars, paint with watercolours and spend time with friends and family.
