I got my start in software development at a young age, learning HTML and creating my first websites. As I progressed through high school, I became more and more interested in programming and participated in code competitions and extracurricular activities. After high school, I interned as a full stack PHP developer in the UK before studying Software Engineering at the University of Wollongong. During my time at university, I developed Green Eggs, a mobile app built in React Native, which received high praise and won the runner up prize in a competition.

After graduating, I pursued my own startup before joining the team at Simply Seated, where I'm currently working as a software engineer. At Simply Seated, I'm building an event hire logistics app called Wueyo.

In my free time, I enjoy tinkering with new technologies and working on personal projects. I'm always looking for ways to improve my skills and stay up-to-date with the latest developments in the field of software engineering.

I’m Spencer Sharp. I live in New York City, where I design the future.

I’ve loved making things for as long as I can remember, and wrote my first program when I was 6 years old, just two weeks after my mom brought home the brand new Macintosh LC 550 that I taught myself to type on.

The only thing I loved more than computers as a kid was space. When I was 8, I climbed the 40-foot oak tree at the back of our yard while wearing my older sister’s motorcycle helmet, counted down from three, and jumped — hoping the tree was tall enough that with just a bit of momentum I’d be able to get to orbit.

I spent the next few summers indoors working on a rocket design, while I recovered from the multiple surgeries it took to fix my badly broken legs. It took nine iterations, but when I was 15 I sent my dad’s Blackberry into orbit and was able to transmit a photo back down to our family computer from space.

Today, I’m the founder of Planetaria, where we’re working on civilian space suits and manned shuttle kits you can assemble at home so that the next generation of kids really 

 make it to orbit — from the comfort of their own backyards.

I'm Edward. I live in Sydney, Australia, where I build software that you'll love using.
