About me

Throughout my career I have always been a reliable, enthusiastic and creative-thinking employee. I am always keen to learn new skills or take on a task slightly out of the ordinary in order to gain experience.

I am looking for a creative, dynamic and rewarding position with an employer who is willing to feed my enthusiasm and offer me opportunities to learn new skills, and test and enhance existing ones.

Key Skills

As well as a range of experience and proficiency in a number of common software applications such as Microsoft Office and Adobe Creative Suite (including what was formerly Macromedia Studio), I am also able to adapt to using tailored applications such as Content Management Systems.

I have an excellent technical understanding of PCs and the internet and have worked closely with internet developers on several large and varied projects, the experience of which has given me a broad knowledge of web development and how to integrate creative solutions with dynamic applications. Technologies I have worked with include: ASP, XML, XSLT, JavaScript, AJAX, and Jquery.

Through eight years experience of working in web design and content editing I have gained solid knowledge and understanding of HTML and CSS coding and design for the purposes of aesthetics, accessibility and SEO and can comfortably hand code both languages. While I have created several websites from scratch I also have experience working with Content Management Systems, including off-the-shelf solutions such as Drupal and Wordpress and bespoke systems that I have been actively involved in the design and development of.

I have a flair for creative writing and consistently produce witty, engaging and accurate copy covering a broad range of subjects.

I am able to develop a good rapport with a broad range of clients with varied demands, budgets and personalities and have worked and developed good relations with large corporations such as NBC Universal, BBC, and BSkyB. I am also able to adapt my working style between a number of varied sectors, from the niche Science Fiction and Horror communities to the more goal-driven retail.
