I'm a Web Designer dedicated to inspiring design using modern & standard practices.

Interface Design

Web site design continues to move at a fast pace. My years of creative experience, especially in Front End Development, means that Web sites I build put the fun in functional.

Web Standards

Surprisingly few Developers have caught on to the importance of standards in Web design. For me, it is the most important driving force behind all the sites I build.

User Experience

The users experience (UX) has become increasingly important in modern web site design. I use the latest techniques to make the UX engaging - plus leading the user at the same time.

Web Services

Web services can be used create some useful functionality without unecessary work on a system built from scratch. I can learn or leverage knowledge I have of existing Web Services.

Unique Sites

When there is a rock solid plan for a startup business online, I also have experience with the server-side scripting language php. I am able to provide solid advice on feasability and strategy for many projects.

CMS, eCommerce

There are a huge array of web applications for free or otherwise that I can set up and introduce you to, the main advice I can give you here is, keep it simple or people won't buy from you.
