Freelance Web Developer / Consultant
Plymouth, United Kingdom
I enjoy the freedom and resources on offer within both my professional and personal work allowing me to gain and develop new/existing skills and experience. I enjoy working with new technologies and have gained considerable experience with C# .Net and ASP.Net through the development of both online and offline software applications. I am continually expanding my knowledge of CSS and modern design techniques for the web and like to share what I learn with others through an online community I have built up over the past few years which currently has over 5000 members.
