ABOUT SIMON GOWING
I am a creative-minded full stack web developer with a passion for art and humane tech. With 10 years experience of cross-functional team leadership and stakeholder management in the visual arts, my love for learning new skills is driven by a desire to find creative solutions to innovative projects I am trained in object-orientated programming using Typescript, Next.js, JavaScript (ES6), MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js, HTML and CSS. My interest in machines and systems started young. I was always taking toys apart to understand how they worked or inventing new tools out of useless objects. This creative curiosity and love for making took me, via artschool, into the world of international galleries and exhibitions, where I worked for 10 years as a project manager, curator and gallery director. Somehow, for so long, working with code felt completely opposite to the path that I had taken – the work of the \'other\' side of the brain. And it wasn\'t until I broke down this mental barrier that I saw programming to be the creative act that it is. And also a space to create beautiful things. Once I realised this, I knew that I wanted to apply the same strategy to problems in the tech world – break down barriers and find creative solutions to innovative humane projects.
