    I'M A DIGITAL EXPERIENCE DESIGNER

    Put simply, I love developing, designing and building digital experiences that grace the pixels on your screens or dots in print.

    My professional colleagues might call this Web Design, User Experience (UX) Design, User Interface (UI) Design, Front-End Development, Consultancy or Print Design... For me, it's one passion, and that's about making experiences that are memorable.

    SKILLS

    Design

    I started designing websites in 2005. In 2007 I ventured into Print Design, but then HTML5 and CSS3 joined the party and brought the web to life and I got back into web design, working with small business clients and various institutions. In the last year I've refocussed my skills on web design / development but I love applying myself to a range of mediums.

    Communications & Marketing

    I've held roles in communications and marketing across both internal and external communications.I focussed mostly in higher education but also transferred my skills to other sectors. I've been fortunate to have spoken about my experiences most notably at CASE where I've delivered three talks in the last year on digital marketing and higher education.

    Code

    I originally started out developing my first website in Action-Script for Macromedia Flash. Obviously things have moved on since and on top of designing assets, I build them with HTML 5, CSS 3 and Javascript. I also have experience with popular frameworks and platforms such as jQuery, PhoneGap, Wordpress, Joomla and Koken CMS.
