A little bit about me...

I was working as a web developer for the hospital in my hometown back in 1998 when I won a competition on Virgin Radio (to see Genesis at Earls Court) and it included train fare to London. I had applied for a job in Hertfordshire for a Junior Computer Programmer at the same time so used my trip to London to go to the interview. I got the job and moved down 1 month later.

I’ve been developing websites ever since. It’s what I am good at and I love doing it (over the years I have done countless free websites for friends and for charities which you only do if you love doing it!).

By 2002 I had enough customers to start my own web development business.
In 2004 – I developed a website for a startup ecommerce company (including CMS and stock management system) which later had a T/O of £25million on my website/CMS!
In 2011 – I began working as a C#.Net developer and in 2014 – I taught myself Umbraco as I thought it was an excellent platform for customers to edit their own websites.

I now work as a freelance C#.Net/Umbraco developer. Read Less
