I am a professional web and user-interface designer working as the Usability Design Manager for MyKnowledgeMap in York, UK. My strong art & design background coupled with a solid knowledge of systems development and programming techniques puts me in a unique position to develop interfaces that are both aesthetically pleasing and functionally intuitive.

Taking time away from working on projects for such clients as the NHS, The RSPB, The Chartered Management Institute, GHD and a number of further and higher education institutions, this site is my personal playground, portfolio and blog.
