About Me

I am an independent Web and Graphic Designer with more than 15 years of global commercial experience. I specialise in accessible web development and the creation of high-impact brand-focused sites, corporate styling and logo design, and typographical development.

Online

I can take a concept all the way from initial pencil sketches to a fully-functional web site, including application development, content management, e-commerce (SSL and Merchant Account incorporation) and professional statistical analytics. Any web site that I create can be optimised for maximum Search Engine positioning, and I can engineer a successful web-based advertising campaign based on almost any budget.

Desktop

I can create solid and reliable desktop applications (with either a local or remote database backend), CD-based interactive training guides and tutorials, and Windows Vista Sidebar Gadgets for promotional or functional purposes.

Marketing

I can develop viral marketing campaigns with striking and memorable visuals, and design and distribute e-mail newsletters that are compliant with the latest generation of Office applications – and that will reach their target audience.

Print

Through the development of custom logo, handwriting and traditional Typefaces I can make a business look more professional, reducing administrative and external printing costs at the same time.

I specialise in full corporate styling – from the creation of an original logo suitable for trade-marking, to completely digital or physically printed stationary. I can source and recommend printers for everything from a business card to a total van wrap – and supply them with whatever they need to get the job done well.
