About

I’m a software developer who goes by @jbrooksuk on the internet. I work at Laravel, enabling our enterprise offering. You‘ll sometimes see me contributing to the docs, framework and packages. I live in Newcastle-Under-Lyme, United Kingdom with my wife, two daughters and cocker-spaniel. I co-organise PHP Stoke, a quarterly meet-up in Stoke-on-Trent.
