Your online presence is crucial to your operations. Yet how much of your intended audience are realistically able to access that presence and do business with you?
Wouldn't you rather have a website that's available to everyone, no matter what device they use to read or even listen to it?
I design and build websites that are not only browser-independent, but are also accessible across a wide variety of user-agents from PDA's, web-enabled phones, touch-screen kiosks through to screen readers and Braille displays.
My solutions are stylish but practical websites that are hand-coded using the latest technologies, validated to W3C standards and WAI compliant.
Current Availability
July 2007: Just returned from travelling.
I took a well-earned break after the success of the Arcadia websites project.
I'm quite keen to hear from any prospective agencies or companies as I'm now back and looking to get stuck in to another project.
If there's any contract roles suitable, please email me (or call me on 07985 455561) and I'd be more than delighted to discuss things further.
Back to top.Latest Project
January - November 2006: ARCADIA GROUP.
Completely new suite of e-commerce websites for Britain's largest retail giant.
All the UK's top brands:
Working with the Arcadia IT Programme Manager, I set-up, trained and directed the E-commerce Design Team throughout the design and build phase of the project to the successful launch of the major brands.
Contracted-in as Arcadia's E-commerce Consultant, I liased with IBM's Websphere Project Managers, Brand Directors and representatives, third-party design agencies, in-house graphic designers and web developers to ensure seamless integration of front-end user-interfaces and back-end technology.
All the sites use the same xhtml templates (served-up via IBM's Java-based Websphere), yet all were given their own unique brand 'look and feel' by using separate stylesheets based on Web Standards Project guidelines for accessibilty.
Previous Project
July - November 2005: INSTITUTE OF DIRECTORS.
I was engaged in a complete redesign and rebuild of the Institute of Directors website.
As a worldwide association of members, the Institute of Directors (IoD) provides a professional network that reaches into every corner of the business community. Their membership spans the whole spectrum of business leadership, from the largest public companies to the smallest private firms.
The project brief was to build the website (over 2000 pages!) to xhtml strict guidelines, thereby making it accessible across a wide variety of user agents.
The new website is scheduled for launch in December 2005.
