Portfolio & Resume


Portfolio

I have worked on numerous corporate and non-corporate websites over the past 15 years, ranging from bands and musicians sites, photography sites, single owner businesses to financial, government and blue chip organisations.

I have been involved from the initial design stages, requirements capture and analysis, wireframing, prototyping, interface design – through production design & build, quality control and assurance, security testing, load testing, regression testing – to final QA testing of front-end application and final customer signoff and acceptance.

Code is written by hand to exacting client and industry standards using best practices for accessibility where possible, meeting w3c specifications is seen as the norm rather than the exception.

Images are created using Photoshop either from scratch or from original artwork to fit client branding requirements and specifications and standards as mentioned above.

Sites I have worked on include.
