Hello, I'm Christopher.
I run Hello Street from Banbury, Oxfordshire. I help businesses cut repetitive work through AI, automation and better connected systems, and I still take on WordPress fixes.
Why Hello Street exists
Start with a real problem.
Business owners and teams often spend hours copying information, chasing updates and repeating the same admin. I want to make that work easier, using AI where it helps and simpler automation where that is enough.
We start with one process, agree what a useful result looks like and test an improvement with the people who will use it. I carry out the technical work myself.
You know what I'm doing
Before I start, I document what is included, what is excluded and anything I need from you. If the requirements change, I explain the impact first.
I check the real-world risks
I review the information, tools, access and human checks involved before building a workflow. If the proposed approach creates a problem, I explain it before proceeding.
You retain control of the work
I work in your repository and accounts wherever practical, provide useful technical notes and do not tie the work to a retainer.
Before Hello Street
I worked as a senior software engineer at the BBC and Jaguar Land Rover. They were employers, not Hello Street clients. The experience taught me a lot about reliable systems, careful releases and leaving code in a state the next developer can understand.
