About Me

I've been addicted to computers for most of my life. My first computer was a Sinclair ZX81, followed by a ZX Spectrum. As a kid I wrote many computer games with my younger brother Jon and fantasised about out how much money we could make with all the £50 that Sinclair Programs magazine offered for each game published :-)

When the internet became mainstream in the UK in the late 90s I couldn't believe my luck and have been working online ever since. During the last 12 years I've established, managed, and sold a highly successful ecommerce business, looked after numerous clients, run multiple affiliate sites, and spent hours programming!

I'm now concentrating my efforts solely on WordPress development. I've been working with WordPress since 2006. It's a fantastic CMS, with huge flexibility. It can be used to rapidly develop complete websites in a fraction of the time (and hence cost) that is required when a project is worked on from scratch. I love it!

Work Experience

Dec 1999 to Present
Web Designer & Developer

I'm a professional freelancer. All my current jobs are developed using WordPress as a CMS. After 12 years in this field (6 of which I've been using WordPress) I honestly believe that WordPress is the perfect solution for many websites. It enables sites to be developed rapidly and cost effectively.

Education

I studied IT at Brighton University a long time ago!
