I love making ideas come to life. I'm a creative with a logical mind. I am an avid learner, following industry trends and I am obsessed with the constantly changing digital landscape. I love to make a business or website work faster, better and more efficiently. I work well on my own initiative and with the high levels of motivation and dedication that are required to meet multiple deadlines without supervision. Even in pressurised situations I have the strength and ability to perform effectively.
I have spent the last 8 years working with larger organisations and individuals as a Front End Developer, Digital Marketing and Operations Management Consultant. I'm a highly motivated online professional with over a decade of experience encompassing client side and freelance roles within multiple industries including entertainment, hospitality, leisure, education, healthcare, retail and third sector.
I am an mid-level developer and designer with a passion for simple and elegant design, usability and information architecture with a track record of on-time and on-budget projects. My work has covered a variety of tasks including:
I am capable of implementing a website from start to finish, using my own initiative, experience and resources and always striving to deliver better results. I am quick to grasp new concepts and ideas and develop innovative and creative solutions to problems. I am a confident communicator who is skilled at dealing with people in an efficient and professional manner. I enjoy working with people, understanding their needs or problems and helping them work towards a solution.
I am currently seeking new opportunities where I can bring immediate value and develop my skill-set further.
