From about the age of four I have wanted to be a graphics designer like my uncle. As I grew up I could frequently be found doodling on anything I could get my hands on. My English teacher would often confiscate my pencils and paper as I could be doodling on things instead of listening to the class.

In 1996 I joined the Art & Design course at Stroud School for Art and Design, there I stayed for 4 years before moving down to Portsmouth University to join the Fine Art course there.
In 1998 I started tinkering with website building, first working with programs like Dreamweaver before eventually moving on to working in Notepad. Using the skills I developed during my art courses I applied them to the web design process.

Through two people I learned how to take my web design work further. During my stay at university I met an American girl (who I would later marry) who taught me to think outside the box. Not long after, my friend and fellow designer & developer Denis introduced me to a little book called “Designing with Web Standards” by Jeffery Zeldman which introduced me to the concepts of semantic coding.

I have since relocated to Indiana in the United States. Where I continue to break my wife’s brain and design creative things.
When not working on a project I can be found gaming, modeling things in Blender, or watching Doctor Who.
