Hi there, I'm Lawrence - a senior Python developer and founder with a passion for information extraction and data mining. I believe that data holds the key to unlocking valuable insights and driving informed decisions. As a developer, I strive to create powerful and efficient tools for extracting, analyzing, and visualizing data. With a focus on innovation and problem-solving, I'm constantly exploring new technologies and techniques to push the boundaries of what's possible. Join me on my journey to turn raw data into meaningful insights!

I've been coding since the age of 7, when I wrote text adventure games in BASIC on my Dad's Tandy-1000.
When I'm not coding, you might find me pursuing my passions for autocross and windsurfing. There's nothing quite like the rush of speed and adrenaline on the race track or catching the perfect wind and waves!
