Technology Fanatic

1. ✍️ Since 2010 I have been writing about technology on this website. I write articles about Productivity, Episerver CMS, Umbraco CMS, Javascript, and React.js
   
   
2. 💻 I started coding for a living in 2003. In 2010 I started my web development company DigitalPrompt to help companies build websites.  Mos t of my projects are B2B helping other companies across the world.  I usually undertake several freelance projects per year.  These projects usually result from enquires made through this site.  If you are reading this and need some development help, reach out here
   
   
3. 🎬 On my YouTube channel, I make weekly videos about web development and productivity
   
   
4. 📚 I have written several books including, Episerver The Missing Manual and Umbraco V8 Secrets Exposed
   
   
5. 👨‍💻 I currently work for Optimizely helping companies maximise web experimentation in London.  If you want to chat about experimentation let me know!

Other Stuff

1. 👶 in 2020 my wife gave birth to a baby boy, Obie Jones - real name no gimmicks.  He keeps me very busy if you like looking at cute baby pictures you can follow his life progress here
   
   
2. 🎁 I still love to code and you can see my tinkerings here
   
   
3. 💰 Asides from tech, my biggest ambition since leaving school has been to attain financial freedom in life. I have been investing in the stock market for over 10 years.  I own a property company...  this time next year I will be a millionaire Rodney! If you want to follow my investment story you can follow my trades on eToro here.  I am happy to chat finance with anyone!
   
   
4. 📱 I believe that having an optimistic and positive mindset is a great thing to aspire to.  Being British and cynically, learning to be more positive isn't something that comes naturally to me at times.  In 2019 I started an Instagram account called daily.motivational.thought with an accompanying website to help spread some positivity in the world and help me on my journey to become more positive
   
   
5. 📷 I like travelling and going to gigs, see some of my adventures on my Instagram and see the countries I have visited on Most Travelled People
   
   
6. 🏃‍♂️ I work out most days you can track my progress or challenge me on Fitbit. 
   
   
7. 📖 I am an avid reader and you can check out the books I've read on Goodreads.
