About Me

Full-stack developer building meaningful technology for communities

My Journey

I'm Adam Pitera, a full-stack developer with a Master's in Intelligent Systems from University College London and PhD research from Imperial College London.

My recent projects have focused on giving communities a voice - from helping parents share their stories about institutions to enabling local residents to shape their neighbourhood spaces. This work draws on both my technical background and extensive training in Non-Violent Communication - essential when building platforms that handle sensitive experiences and foster genuine dialogue. I believe technology should empower people, not complicate their lives.

My Approach

Research-Driven

My psychology and research background means I dig deep to understand user needs before building.

Clear Communication

Complex systems explained simply, with Non-Violent Communication training ensuring I really hear what clients need and can navigate sensitive topics with care.

Ethical by Design

Having studied both psychology and AI, I understand the importance of building responsibly.
