I am a multi disciplined creative, having started my career as a Graphic Designer and Illustrator working with Cow Gum at a drawing board. I soon adapted to using an Apple Mac, Quark XPress (now InDesign), Illustrator, PhotoShop. I have always enjoyed learning new software and at one point was pretty handy with Flash animation, using code to create anything from animated adverts to full blown Flash websites. Learning HTML, CSS (now SASS) and Javascript was a natural progression and when I finally went freelance I was building my own CMS systems using PHP and MySQL. Then I found WordPress (10 years ago now) which I currently specialise in. I work hard to try and keep up to date with changing technology and have created some very complex web applications over the years. I still love to design, draw and paint when I get the chance and am learning the piano (in my spare time! haha).
