Hi, I'm Jamie Tanna (he/him/his), and I'm currently a Tech Lead (Software Development Engineer 3) at Capital One UK where I'm working on Customer Acquisitions.
I currently live in Nottingham with my partner Anna Dodson and our beautiful terror of a cat Morph.
I use my site as a method of blogging about my learnings, as well as sharing information about projects I have previously, or are currently, working on in my spare time.
I'm a GNU/Linux user, a big advocate for the Free Software Movement, and the IndieWeb movement and I try to self host my own services where possible, instead of relying on other providers.
Drop me an email at hi@jamietanna.co.uk, or using any of the other social links below.

This is how I feel about hackathons. I was able to spend my weekends learning things - like building things with others - that my uni course wouldn't have been able to teach me cause there was a tonne of theory I rarely use 🤷🏽♂️
