With a long history of web development and technical leadership, I combine automation and growth strategies with the technical know-how.

I have 20 years commercial experience in the web industry, working with a range of national and global companies, such as Times Higher Education, The Economist, Haymarket and NBC. I’ve also worked with many small and medium size companies.

This wide breadth of experience gives me a lot of draw on while creating solutions to my clients' problems.

I really value the real-time discussions, which save a bunch of headaches. Very relieved to get so many things that weren't working fixed without having to figure it out myself!
