About me

Hello,

My name is Andre, I'm a 25-year-old Frontend Developer based in London, UK.
I have a bachelor's degree in New Technologies of Communication and over 4 years of commercial experience as a Web Developer, first within a digital agency environment (about 2 and a half years), then as a full-time freelance developer (about 10 months) and currently as a Frontend Developer with a small team of web geeks in Central London (almost 1 year).

My skills include both front and back-end related technologies. However, I've been focusing in Frontend Development over the last few months and that's what I'm really looking forward to keep doing right now. So, let's see:

- XHTML, HTML4 and HTML5

- CSS2 and CSS3

- JavaScript, jQuery and Ajax

- PHP (object-oriented) and MySQL

- Flash and ActionScript 2

- Photoshop, Dreamweaver and Fireworks

- XML, JSON and XSLT

- ASP.NET and Umbraco CMS

Apart from the academic background and technical expertise accumulated over the years, I have been responsile for a wide range of project management and customer service related tasks - evaluating functional and technical requirements, elaborating detailed project proposals and assuring an efficient communication between the client and the development team over the entire project life cycle.

That being said, I'd also like to mention I'm currently interested in challenging midweight Frontend positions in Greater London. After several years as an all-rounder, it's finally time to focus on what's really floating my boat right now.
So if you like the sound of all this and think we could be friends, then drop me a line so we can get straight into the details.
