I am currently a freelance web developer (i.e. a web developer for hire) based in Brighton, UK.

I specialise in coding Object Orientated PHP 5 systems and website components as well as MySQL database administration and Linux server administration. In addition I have well rounded experience in Search Engine Optimisation, website usability and internet marketing generally.
