My name is Ellie Huxtable. I’m a software/infrastructure engineer, and am at my happiest when I’m building something cool. I love an adventure, and if I’m not at a computer there’s a good chance I’m riding a motorcycle.
Here you will find a mix of notes, longer/more thoughtful posts, and links to various things I’ve done
This site is constantly shifting, but here are some things you may be interested in
- Posts, a selection of my longer-form writing and thoughts
- Projects - over the years I’ve built a lot of things, but the main two I’m known for are
- Life, where I’m writing about my travels, adventures, and life in general
- Notes, where I write about things I’m working on and exploring. They’re not supposed to be as high-quality as a post, but I’ll be publishing them much more often.
