I'm a freelance web designer, multimedia developer and design consultant. Basically, I like to make things look good and work well - but I always start from a user-focused methodology and factor in technology before I pile on the pretty.
If you'd like to know more about how I actually do this and what services I provide, just keep moving down...
Watch my showreel video below for a quick three minute run-down of some of the more interesting or high profile work I've undertaken in the last year.
I like to try my hand at pretty much everything - but I come from a web design background. For many years I specialised in Flash and still consider myself a Flash expert - but sadly, technology moves on and sometimes you have to "kill your darlings". Because I love creating Rich Internet Applications, I picked up HTML5, CSS3 and Javascript (primarily jQuery and GSAP) as ways to carry on doing what I love.
Need a website? Got a website that needs improving? Just let me know! I love web design. I've been doing it for over ten years, so I flatter myself that I've got quite good at it.
Whilst less popular than in its heyday, Flash is still out there and I still love it. After designing with Flash for over ten years, I've become somewhat of an expert.
Design, optimisation, editing, web deployment... pretty much everything short of filming and directing! From web video integration to full DVD build from scratch, I have you covered.
I've always been a designer first and a developer second - and work doesn't come much more design-centric than print. No coding, no technology concerns - just make it look good!
