My Name is
Luke Henderson!

I’m Luke Henderson, a Full Stack Developer and current MSc student in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence at Newcastle University, following my 2:1 in Business Management from Northumbria University. My journey blends a strong technical foundation with business acumen, having spent several years developing automation systems, web applications, and cloud-based solutions. Professionally, I’ve worked with technologies like Python, Django, FastAPI, MySQL, and cloud platforms such as Google Cloud, Azure, and DigitalOcean. My experience spans from building automated data pipelines at Cleardata UK to integrating REST and GraphQL APIs at Zynk Software, all while promoting DevOps and Agile best practices to deliver efficient, scalable solutions.

Beyond work and study, I’m endlessly curious, a trait that spills into my love for ancient history. Whether it’s the strategies of Rome, the resilience of Carthage, or the mysticism of Ancient Briton, I find inspiration in how past civilizations shaped technology, trade, and governance. This fascination often influences how I approach problem-solving: strategic, structured, and deeply analytical.

A quieter passion of mine is cultivating bonsai trees and caring for succulent plants. I love building small indoor penjing landscapes inspired by ancient gardens, miniature scenes that balance structure, patience, and storytelling. It’s a hobby that blends my fascination with history (how spaces were designed to guide movement, mood, and meaning) with the craft of shaping living trees over time. In a funny way, it mirrors software through the thoughtful pruning, long-term planning, and small improvements that compound over time.

I’m also a lifelong Star Wars fan. Finding it as an excellent escape to delve into and escape following a heavy day.

I’m currently developing NeuroMoney, a Fintech web application designed to empower neurodiverse adults in managing their finances. This passion project combines my technical expertise, entrepreneurial mindset, and commitment to inclusive, purpose-driven innovation. You can find this at NeuroMoney.io.
