About
I've been developing on the web since I was in high school around 14 years old. I first started with technologies such as; dreamweaver, html, css and wordpress. After high school I studying Computer Science at Sixth Form learning Visual Basic. I loved programming and wanted to continue it further whilst learning photoshop so I decided to go for an apprenticeship instead of going to university. At the apprenticeship I learned PHP using the Laravel Framework and also learned SQL databases with mySQL.

Fast forward to today I have over 10 years of Web Development experience with 10 years in industry specialising in javascript. Whilst I have been working I also been busy with my hobbies. One of them is music where I have been making music and producing since high school making of sorts of electronic sounds. I post some completed and Work In Progress tracks on my Audius page.
Another hobby I have is playing Dota 2 with friends. Six years ago I completed in Blink Dota UK and won the tournament with Enclave Gaming.

When I have some free time I try and beat part of games in the fastest time. I currently have the World Record for games such as Total War: Rome and Robot Wars.
I've been playing hockey for North Stafford Hockey Club since I was 9 years old and I pleased to represent the 1st team for the club in the past two years.
Over the past 19 years at the club I have played for every men's team and also Captain'd the fourth team for one year.
Lastly, I created a website for the club 5 years ago, this is now managed by Pitchero where the site shows fixtures and news.
