		<h1>Hi, I'm Lewis</h1>

		<p class="inline-block max-w-[45ch]">
			I'm a software engineer who loves building things for the web. I consider myself a generalist, but on a given day I'll probably be working with Typescript, HTML and CSS, and on occasion a touch of .NET. I work for <a href="https://triptease.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Triptease</a> as a Senior Software Engineer, and on the side I'm learning Rust by building a <a href="/post/creating-a-sinclair-basic-interpreter/">Sinclair BASIC Interpreter</a>.

			When I'm not working I love cycling, reading fiction (mostly sci-fi and ghost stories), and spending time with my family & our border collie.
