Who Am I?

My name is **Connor Stansfield** and I like to build things. I began coding at the young age of 17 in New Zealand. Since then, software engineering has been my passion, taking me across the globe—from Europe to the Middle East and beyond.

I operate as a Tech Lead & Full Stack Engineer, architecting scalable solutions and driving technical excellence. My expertise spans complex web applications, cloud infrastructure, and performance optimization.

My mantra is simple: *Technological elegance through rigorous engineering.*
