With over 10 years of agency and freelance experience, my skill set has a broad range: from the foundational online building blocks of HTML, CSS and Javascript, right through to full stack development. I'm always sure to harness UX, UI and accessibility thinking as a complement to my technical abilities.

Teaching and mentoring developers has also played an integral role in my career and it's something I approach with passion and joy.

My current focus is on web performance, and as a member of the team at Calibre it's something I get to work on every day!

Outside of web development I am passionate about music and cycling. My days as a DJ and radio host might now be done and dusted, but you can follow along with my other two wheeled adventures over on Strava.
