Professional Biography
I'm a freelance ASP.NET MVC Developer and Website Designer from North Lincolnshire, UK.
Before I became a freelancer I gained almost 10 years of digital agency experience as well as extensive experience in both the mobile phone and travel industry sectors.
I am a senior level developer, having headed a team of seven individuals during my last 'full time' position - between us we designed and developed a range of hotel and flight booking systems, intranet services and reporting facilities using third-party real-time data sources.
Before that, I have held roles in a number of web design agencies, having responsibility for the design, development, deployment, testing and maintenance of websites and systems for clients such as Ann Summers, The Co-Operative Group, Wanadoo and Verisign.
Core Competencies
I specialise in the development of fantastic looking websites and web applications for clients and digital agencies throughout the UK.
My core competency is the development (and design) of high-end data-driven websites using ASP.NET MVC with RESTful and SOAP/XML-RPC technologies. Basically, I can make your web-apps and related systems talk to each other nicely.
