Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Brown is a versatile creator, maintainer and freelance IT consultant with 14+ years crafting PHP-backed web systems, MySQL interfaces, and object-oriented designs while also editing and running community projects in Thanet. A self-described "Plant" per Belbin, he blends unorthodox problem-solving and theoretical data modelling with practical antipattern identification to deliver efficient, well-structured code. Alongside sustained open-source involvement and a long history of blogging, presenting and local leadership (chairing Thanet Creative), he provides detailed beta-reading for writers, turning narrative feedback into multi-page actionable reports. Based in Thanet, England, Matthew pairs hands-on development chops with editorial rigor and a taste for board games, making him equally comfortable shipping backend features or critiquing storytelling.
