What I do

I make web sites.  Mostly using Drupal as the CMS/Framework, but I have experience in Wordpress, Silverstripe and many bespoke systems.  I started building websites years ago, when server-side scripting was just starting to kick off.  I then worked solely as a front-end developer for many years, back before it had a title.  I've been working freelance for 4 years now, so found I had to also go back to server-side (back-end) programming so I could offer a complete development package to my clients.  Languages/frameworks I use are HTML/CSS, PHP, MySQL, jQuery, ASP, SQL Server, ColdFusion, Flash/ActionScript, MooTools.

About me

I'm a web developer originally from Kilcunda, Australia.  Graduated from Swinburne Uni of Technology with BA in Computer Science & Software Engineering.  While studying I started making web sites for various clients and after graduating, worked in Melbourne for a year full-time before moving to London in 2003, where I've been working as a contractor and freelancer since.

About this site

This site is build on Drupal 7 CMS.  It does some cool stuff with SVG thanks to Raphaël.  It means I'm able to draw the clouds and other items instead you having to download large png images (quicker loading!!).  Also uses web fonts for the fancy heading font.
