About Me

I'm a professional full time designer and developer with almost 15 years of experience. I take on any size project from small starters and micro sites to fully fledged e-commerce shopping sites and complex apps.

I have a strange mix of creativity and logical thinking. I love design and I love writing complex code, as geeky as that sounds! I love what I do and I take pride in my work.

Web Design

Designing, or re-designing a website for your brand. Whether you're just starting out and need help with the branding process, or you're looking to refresh your existing website.

Web Development

Building your website or web application using whichever technologies are best suited. Unlike most other developers out there, I'm not tied to wordpress, or any other tech stack or platform. I well versed in many different languages and frameworks, and I'll choose the best one for your project.

Dev-ops

Consultation

FAQs

Sometimes, yes. if you have an exiting wordpress site I can of course tweak your theme, build you a new one, write bespoke plugins or add custom functionality.

However, If you're looking for a new website, I will try my hardest to talk you out of it.

I work with them all, however, I have my own bespoke CMS which is lightening fast, intuitive and easy to use and I think you'll love it.

I prefer to work with on a fixed cost per project basis, but I can of course work on an hourly or day rate. My current hourly rate is £50 per hour, and my day rate is £400.

I frequently work with other developers, designers and agencies. I'm happy to work on a white label basis, or as part of a team.

How long is a piece of string? Smaller simple projects can run from a few days to a few weeks, larger projects can take months.
