Hey, I'm Sam Woolerton
It’s great to meet you.
I'm an analyst by day, working with a range of tools to deliver business insights, automate reporting, and dig into what the data really says.
I'm also a self-taught developer, and I love turning ideas into rich experiences that are fast, look great on every device, and are intuitive for users. I'm most comfortable when working on the frontend, but have worked extensively with data pipelines, built API integrations, and using Azure cloud services.
My university journey finished at the end of 2017 when I graduated from the University of Waikato, having majored in Economics and Accounting, tutored Strategy, and competed in international business case competitions—and had a blast doing so.
Drop me a line.

What I'm working on
An online spreadsheet (a basic clone of Excel) to put a few new skills to work. I have a lot more respect for the Excel team now having built a spreadsheet from scratch!
Directed acyclic computation graph using parser combinators to process user-provided formulas. Also syntax highlighting, autocomplete, and basic type hinting.
