Curriculum Vitae

I have worked in the tech industry for over 25 years with a focus on software and website development. I started out part time and freelancing before establishing my own companies Nine Three Limited and Dev Meta. For several years I worked in close collaboration with two marketing agencies in the UK and Sweden before moving into contracting and later accepting a full stack developer role with Cyber-Duck.

Throughout my career I’ve used a vast range of languages, frameworks and applications with my current monthly tech stack consisting of React Native, Laravel, PHP, HTML5, CSS3, SCSS, JavaScript, Gulp, SQL, WordPress, Lighthouse, Buddy, Git and Docker.
