About Me

illustration of Sharon Henry

I’m a full-stack developer with a background in financial services, building data-driven web applications for teams that need accuracy, security, and clarity.

With 15+ years supporting investment and trading environments, I understand how critical reliable data systems are. I now specialise in Python and Django to create dashboards, reporting tools, and web applications that turn complex datasets into practical decision-making tools.

I’m particularly interested in projects at the intersection of finance, data, and web development.

Available for immediate temp and contract roles. Remote/London based.
