Eric Briese

I'm an Aussie software developer with a degree in Computer Science and Law, currently living in London. I've worked across defence, health, and finance industries, and in operations ranging from startups to big enterprise. I enjoy solving complex problems with code and have experience working with Django, PostgreSQL, and data-driven applications.

Outside of work: film photography and wherever the next cheap flight is going.
