Hi there. I'm a designer & coder who works in the areas of web design / development, game development and digital art.
In the web space I'm a front end all rounder but I have a particular specialization in theme creation, no matter the platform. I also love finding the latest most efficient, user focused design and dev techniques of the day.
In game development I'm addicted to playing with every different engine, toolset and framework I can find. In digital art I love everything from painting to vector work to pixel art to 3D modelling.
In short, if it's creative and you can make it digitally, I love it.
