Hello, my name is

Bret Gomes

Junior Full Stack Developer

I'm interested in helping engineer the future of software and web applications with a keen interest in user experience. Currently, At the moment, I'm all about getting my hands dirty with personal projects, playing around with new tech, and quenching my thirst for making things happen.

About Me

As a junior full stack software developer from South East England, I embrace lifelong learning and have a deep-rooted passion for web development. My tech journey began with my first computer as a child, evolved through building gaming PCs for friends and family during the pandemic, and culminated in my current pursuit of software development.

My career journey has taken me through various roles in eCommerce, primarily in the B2B sector, where I played a key role in tech support and testing for the UK's largest ergonomic chair supplier. Transitioning to a Junior CRM Developer role, my fascination with coding truly ignited, driving me to further explore the intricacies of software development.
