Matthew Shelley’s Summary

Coming from a background in Industrial Design I have somehow found yet another facet of creativity in Web Design. As a student a portfolio was a necessary tool to get your foot into any door and so began my journey.

I now find myself on yet another adventure now moving into the realm development from what was previously much more UI design. From concept to delivery I strive to better myself both as a designer & developer in every project while trying to keep on the cutting edge of technology as it rapidly evolves.

When you are passionate about what you do often you will find there is no separation from work and pleasure, rather there are opportunities to encourage growth, change and create something great in everything you do :)
