Written By

I'm a freelance web developer based in Whitby, UK. I built my first website using GeoCities, and learned to write HTML and CSS using Notepad. Web technology has come a long way since then, as have my web development skills!

These days I love helping my clients make the most of the internet. I provide design, development, marketing and IT support services, forming long-term partnerships with my clients.
