I'm a web developer based in Edinburgh, Scotland, and use the pronouns he/him. I love front-end development—particularly CSS, HTML, and web performance.
I currently work as Lead Developer at the creative agency Series Eight. You can find out more about my Projects and Work, about me or view my CV. I occasionally write about web technologies on my blog.
