Work
I’m a freelance website developer based in Hampshire, England. I have many years experience creating web based content using a wide array of technologies including PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS and Java Script, as well as a strong grounding with web standards.
I’ve been developing websites professionally since 2006, and as a hobby for as long as I can remember. I started out as a freelance website designer and developer whilst I was still studying for my degree, using word of mouth advertising I was hired to create websites for some local businesses. If you or your company is interested in hiring me, please get in touch.
I am also the founder of BugMuncher, a website customer feedback tool, which has had a lot of positive feedback, and is already profitable, despite only being launched a week ago, (16th July 2011)
Play
As someone who spends the vast majority of their working day staring at computer screens, when I’m not working I try to get out in to the real world as much as possible (although I am partial to a bit of XBOX 360).
My number one play time passion is music, I love both listening to and creating music of all genres. I enjoy the challenge of learning to play new instruments, my current arsenal includes singing, acoustic and electric guitar, piano, drums, bass, synthesisers and violin. I play regular acoustic gigs locally and have recorded and produced a CD of songs under the name Texas Heart Shot, which has been well received. I also support live music, and try to see as many performances from both local musicians, and well known artists as possible.
I enjoy surfing all year round, and regularly make the pilgrimage to North Devon where there are some of England’s most beautiful, and not to mention surfable, beaches. I’m also not adverse to a bit of kayaking, but only when the water is too flat to surf.
I’m also a definite petrol head, I love working on cars and motorbikes, either for repairs, or just for the fun of taking them apart to figure out how they work. And of course, I love riding motorbikes as much as I love working on them.
