From an early age, I've always been creative; having been into art and design since as far as I can remember. As I grew older, I found I was taking more of an interest in computers, and more specifically digital design. I would spend hours messing around in Paintshop Pro, creating a range of graphics to quench my design thirst. However, it wasn't until a little later on that I discovered Photoshop and I immediately fell in love.

It was in my college days that I started putting my skills to real use. I began learning HTML and set up my own personal portfolio, showcasing the skills I'd learnt. As a result, I started gaining a steady stream of freelance work. This gave me the chance to further improve my skills and build on my new found passion.

Current Status

I'm currently working as a Front-End Web Developer at a large Marketing/Advertising agency based in Manchester. Plenty of Tea & Biscuits are consumed throughout the day and I get to work on some really interesting and exciting projects with a lovely bunch of people. What more could anyone ask for?

When not sat in front of a screen, playing with pixels (or rather, drinking Tea) I tend to do a bit of freelance work here and there, time permitting. I love meeting and working with new people,
so if you'd like to work with me, why not get in touch?

The Future

I would love to become as successful as veterans like Elliot Jay Stocks and Andy Clarke, but who knows. I'll continue doing the things I love to do day-by-day, and see where it takes me.
