The inane mutterings of Alexander Foxleigh
Alex Foxleigh is a Senior Front-End Developer and Tech Lead who spends his days making the web friendlier, faster, and easier to use. He’s big on clean code, clever automations, and advocating for accessibility so everyone can enjoy tech - not just those who find it easy. Being neurodivergent himself, Alex actively speaks up for more inclusive workplaces and designs that welcome all kinds of minds.
