Paul Cook

First of all, I love writing code. Ever since writing my first program in C++ and manipulating it to produce a desired output, I have been obsessed with the idea of using software to solve practical problems.

For my first professional contract, I was given the opportunity to lead a full UI/UX overhaul of a small start up's website. My second contract involved revamping existing website to next major relase. This contract quickly turned into a full time offer which lasted 6 years. Today, I am a senior engineer at FreeUp and Indeed working with Shopify for most projects.

I play the piano/guitar and I find a beautiful crossover between my software and my music.
