I am equally comfortable in discussing new requirements and planning work with a customer as I am in identifying and fixing problems in an existing application. Although my preferred platform is MySQL and PHP, I am happy to work with other databases and languages and I adapt quickly when working in challenging situations.

When building new applications, I understand the importance of getting the correct database design and the correct user interface design to complement each other and work together seamlessly. I also understand the need for flexible designs that can keep up with the rapid pace of change.

Thorough testing is key to the quality of the final result - I recommend a rigorous testing methodology for all new applications that includes a User Acceptance Test and a final sign-off prior to launching.
