About me

Dear Sir / Madam,

I am applying for the position of Mid weight Flash Developer, that was advertised via CreativePool.co.uk.

I have spent more than 10 years working with Flash on a very wide range of projects, prototypes, games and museum interactives, and I believe I have the skills to match the advertised position. Recently I have recently produced Flash work for Blackberry (RIM), the National Maritime Museum, the Royal Observatory, the Red Cross Museum in Geneva and other high profile clients.

I have strong knowledge of Flash, Actionscript 2 & 3 and have worked or tinkered with most aspects of the program. I'm very happy working on my own or as part of a close team. I have worked as a designer as well as a developer and am equally happy in both camps.

Thank you very much for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours Faithfully,

Jon Sutton
