25+ years building websites that actually work

I handle design, front end build, accessibility, and performance - everything you need for a website that converts visitors into customers.

Read about my experience and approach.

This suits you if: You want a site built properly (not fast and cheap), you care about accessibility and performance (not just how it looks), and you want someone who actually answers your emails.

This also suits: Agencies who need an experienced front end specialist who delivers on time, on budget, and to spec.

Featured keynotes

Accessibility isn't optional.

A blunt, practical talk for teams who think they've already nailed it (but probably definitely haven't).

Let's talk about performance.

Performance isn’t a feature - it’s a foundation that supports usability, inclusivity, and impact. In this keynote, I dig into why that matters and how we can stop shipping slow, bloated nonsense.
