this is stefan's personal website

stefan kenichiro nowak, specifically – hopefully that's the Stefan you were looking for.

stefan is a software engineer with over a half-decade of experience working with london-ey tech-y companies big and small.
so far, he has yet to bring down production for any more than a few hours at any one time.

stefan lives with his partner, harriet, and their son, cassius, in south-west london, uk 🇬🇧

introduction

Hey there!

I'm Stefan–father of a small, brand-new human; pretty alright software engineer; barely-functional caffiene addict; overly-enthusiastic tech nerd; midnight gourmand; armchair film critic and much more.

This is a little website built using the Astro framework as a public home for my thoughts and projects.

what you'll find here

⚠️ This site is a continuous work in progress as I learn to work with Astro. Expect things to break all the time!

Expect to find a mix of blog posts, project write-ups, and other random musings. If you're looking to hire a software engineer, you can check out the work page for more information about me, and to see if I might be a good fit for your team. For now, you can read all my rambling over on the posts page, or see some of my recent posts below.
