Portfolio: https://hgm.ggI'm 24, from the UK, and I spend my time somewhere between music, gaming and tech. I started hosting Call of Duty servers in 2022 and kept building whatever the servers needed until some of it turned into products. These days that also covers Formula 1 timing, iPhone apps and a homelab that keeps growing. Everything is on hgm.gg.
