aboutme

hey, I’m Chezzer (or Ryan, depending who you are). I am a web and broadcast developer living in Waikato, New Zealand. I currently work at Rocketspark, building a website builder. I also do side projects inside the game Minecraft for the likes of Mojang, Tubbo, MoneySMP, Gridlock and Bundle Group, just to name a few.

I’ve been in the craft for over 6 years, developing systems, websites, minecraft servers, passion projects and broadcasts. It all started with PHP and a volunteer job working at an online radio station, from there I found a few connections and started building out my portfolio and learning more about what it means to program.

Growing up in New Zealand, it’s given me a -let’s say- unique perspective on life. I take frequent trips to the USA and UK and am always baffled about how different we are. I am originally from the UK, but moved here when I was 2, so for the most part I am a kiwi, but I feel having family all over the world makes me some sort of global traveler.

Also, never move to New Zealand, the timezone is awful.
