beeps NOW!

A “now” page is a conceptual accompaniment to an about page. While an about page can tell you about my background and my identity, it doesn’t tell you about what I’m currently doing or what I currently care about. Thus, this.

Now

💻 I’m working as a frontend developer on the GOV.UK Design System team. Currently, and for the last several months, I’ve been working on the upcoming GOV.UK brand refresh. I’m also assisting with updates to the WCAG Primer and have been iterating upon how I record and distribute GOV.UK browser data.

🏥 Unfortunately, I’m dealing with a lot of health-related issues at the moment. Since the start of the year I’ve been diagnosed with asthma, hypertension, and sleep apnea. It’s been a lot.

🎶 Lately, I’ve been listening to my whole library on shuffle, rediscovering music I’ve not listened to for a while. Also Eurovision happened, so I’ve been listening to entries from that for a while.

📺 I’m watching 3 Body Problem, Murderbot, Jet Lag: The Game, the new Formula 1 season, and various Dropout shows. As per usual, I’m rewatching Star Trek: Enterprise along with The Greatest Generation podcast.

📚 I’m currently (slowly) reading The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet by John Green.

🎮 I’ve mostly been playing OpenTTD, finally working out how schedules work. Pokémon TCG Pocket is also distracting me twice a day.

Recently

📣 I’ve begun voice training and laser hair removal so that I can Be More Trans.

😺 I’ve been doing a bit of work on BristolFurs website-related stuff.

🏳️‍🌈 I went to Birmingham for ConFuzzled 2025 and Cardiff for Pride Cymru, pride event of Wales.

Soon

🇸🇪 I’m going to Stockholm for a long weekend at the end of June.

🏎️ In July, I’ll be going to Bristol Pride and be attending the London e-Prix for the first time!

🫘 In September, I’ll be seeing Three Bean Salad live and might be headed to the London Podcast Festival again, depending on what the schedule is like.
