Hi there 👋, I'm Pat! 😄

I'm a Senior Backend Software Engineer primarily working in/with TypeScript/NodeJS (previously PHP/Laravel) but love discovering/trying new technologies!

About me

• 🛢 I enjoy working with large datasets as I find the challenges, technologies, and strategies facinating. I've finished reading Designing Data Intensive Applications - Martin Kleppmann on this topic and gained some valuable knowledge and insights, I highly recommend this book

• 📖 I'm currently reading Node.js Design Patterns!

• 🎥 I'm currently refreshing my knowledge of NodeJS with NodeJS - The Complete Guide course!

• 🏠 Fascinated by ClickHouse and always looking for excuses to use it!

• 🦕 Intrigued by the Deno runtime, looking for excuses to build something with it!

• ✌️ I'm looking to collaborate on anything OSS but haven't quite found something I'm very interested in yet (open to suggestions!)

• ❤️ Beer🍺️, Coffee ☕️, Badminton 🏸, Cycling 🚴‍♂️️, Hiking 🗻️
