I'm John, a highly experienced and awardwinning freelance web developer based in sunny Brighton.

I am an enthusiastic development specialist and tech lead with over twentyone years of handson experience.

I deliver considered user experiences working with modern JavaScript (or TypeScript), React, HTML and CSS.

My work is diverse; I've worked with clients worldwide on projects including:

  • helping prospective car buyers find just the right configuration for their next sports car;
  • helping develop the online identity of Volvo's new premium EV brand;
  • leading a team of developers for the world's local bank, rebuilding their commercial banking platform;
  • ... and enhancing the website of a local toyshop so that they could carry on trading during lockdown.
