I started out as a front-end developer and over the years ended up doing a bit of everything — design, WordPress, animation, technical problem solving and figuring out how a site or app should actually work before writing the code.
These days I build websites and web apps for businesses, and run web products of my own that people use and pay for every day. I like keeping things simple, working directly with the people behind a project and being involved from the first idea through to launch.
Away from the screen I’m usually riding motorcycles, taking photos, travelling somewhere or finding another project to start.
