About Me

I am London (UK) based interface developer with sound knowledge of back-end technologies. I code in HTML + CSS and use JavaScript (mostly the amazing jQuery library) for unobtrusive enhancement. I am interested in mobile and touch based interface.

I have worked as lead interface developer and practice consultant for some of the biggest brands in the UK for last six years. I have industry experience in retail, finance, media, travel and advertising.

I am passionate cyclist and I spend my weekends training for road racing.

I have formed Responsive Design Ltd in 2011 and provide complete solutions for small and medium businesses.
