About Me
After developing with PHP & JavaScript for over 15 years, it's kind of my bread and butter. I've worked in across a breadth of roles before going freelance full-time in 2018, so I like to believe I have a good understanding of the industry to help you out. Whether that's on a cool project you have or maybe you are an agency looking for an extra set of hands.
