I like to work with great clients

I’ve worked on lots of projects for major brands. I started in a small digital agency and worked my way through to working for corporate clients on behalf of agencies.


I have both client side and agency side experience and am happy to use Mac or Windows.

I’ve got a full front-end web design skillset

I trained as a tradtional print designer. After graduating, I became interested in web design and taught myself HTML/CSS along with Flash. I touted my newly gained skills to local companies and managed to get in with a small digital agency. From there onwards I have specialised in online media.

My Words…

Years ago, as a spawny faced youngling I created my fair share of bad interfaces and abhorrent aesthetic ’experiments‘. I always learned a lot from trying and not succeeding first time. The important thing for me is to try.


I‘m both creative and technical. Web design has provided me with a platform on which to indulge both these passions. I love to ride sportsbikes, play XBOX, and I love films. Most of all though I love great websites, well designed, easy to use, just great websites.
