Hi, my name is Mark and I create websites and apps.

I am a Web and Mobile App developer from Colchester in Essex (United Kingdom) with over 10 years experience in developing websites and mobile applications and a Full Stack Web Development Certification from CareerFoundry.

As a developer I have experience with a wide range of technologies including JavaScript, React and WordPress alongside being familiar with GitHub for version control, SQL and noSQL databases and having experience of managing hosting packages. I also enjoy the challenge of SEO and building websites to not just work well for clients but to also perform well on Google. I am also familiar with web accessibility and WCAG compliance.

Alongside enjoying the process of building and developing websites and apps from scratch I also enjoy the challenge of ensuring that they are secure and optimised for speed. I love the challenge of being able to create more bespoke, customised automations to help people get more out of their website.

With a background in Youth Work & Training I bring a blend of technical ability in web and app development alongside having excellent communication, presentation and networking skills.
