A-Levels in the following subjects (grades in brackets)
After graduating from university and moving to Bath, I made the decision to start up my own web development company. I was working as a freelance web designer whilst I was at Oxford, so this was a natural progression for me as well as an exciting challange. Please see the Fruity Solutions website for more details.
I have over nine years experience in website design, web application development, interface design, accessibility, e-commerce, database architecture, security, and e-learning.
I work in both the commercial and not-for-profit sectors, and specialise in building usable and accessible websites designed for users in developing countries. My not-for-profit clients include:
I play guitar and bass, and have performed countless times as part of a five piece band and acoustic duet. I love writing, recording and producing music, and over the years I've put together a small home studio.
Recently I have discovered the joys of cooking, and since buying a house I have also become a bit of a home improvement enthusiast. I am a competent four ball juggler, and am still working on five.
