I have always been interested in the web and how websites work ever since moving back to the UK from Belgium in 2008. Since then I have learned some interesting and amazing stuff, mainly thanks to websites like CSS-Tricks.com, where I have managed to earn a few extra quid doing the odd website here and there for customers. I love finding out new skills using HTML and CSS and I am currently learning more details about Javascript (especially Jquery) and PHP.
The websites I have made so far range from static to dynamic. For some I use Wordpress as a CMS, which means the customer can update their own site, uploading content and images. For others I have used a lighter CMS, called Cushy CMS.
Before actually coding any website, I will first design a mock up using Photoshop. I then will show the customer the mock up and change bits 'n' bobs until we are both happy.
So far I have been lucky enough to have designed websites for people from all over the UK.
When I am not trying to design websites, I'm normally playing football for the mighty Tavistock AFC, spearfishing, bodyboarding or just chilling out with the girlfriend.
