Background

A developer who cares about the details — five years of agency experience, now channelled into focused freelance work.

I've spent the last five years honing my craft at Grotesque Ltd, a digital agency where I've worked on everything from sleek portfolio sites to complex web applications. Working in an agency environment taught me how to deliver quality work on tight deadlines, communicate effectively with clients, and stay current with rapidly evolving web technologies.

Now, I'm channelling that experience into my freelance practice, offering the same professional standards and attention to detail — but with the flexibility and direct collaboration that comes from working one-on-one.
