Website and graphic designer with a unique style and a solid understanding of CSS, HTML, PHP, Jquery and Wordpress
A professional WordPress website and graphic designer with experience in many facets of visual design. My career started with 20 years’ experience in video game graphics and design, including 2D and 3D work. I changed trades to website design in 2015. While spending 3 years immersing myself in the ways of website programming, I started building websites for clients. I have created several live websites including a full eCommerce store. I enjoy building websites with creative graphics and a tactile/interactive feel.
I’m also am a keen coder, developing WordPress themes and plugins from the ground up, to provide extra functionality. I’m not a fan of using 3rd party plugins, as experience taught me it can be disastrous when a plugin or theme breaks a website and the developer isn’t quick to respond. I prefer to keep as much code as possible in-house, allowing me to fix issues far more quickly.
