Lee Overy · senior software engineer

I was a Royal Marines Commando, then a financial / mortgage advisor, now a senior software engineer and entrepreneur. I taught myself to code in 2006 and have spent my time since then building and running my own businesses (13 so far and counting).

These days, I split my time between contracting as a senior software engineer for clients and building products of my own.
