About Me.

Based in West Sussex, with qualifications and experience over eight years Specialising in website design and development, digital marketing and the Graphic Arts. I have extensive knowledge of website design that is focused on helping clients to showcase their brand and generate new leads.

As an experienced website designer and developer I have worked on a wide range of projects. I have first-hand knowledge of working with clients in a variety of industries to design, build and manage their websites, along with
creating bespoke brand identities.

I specialise in SEO, website content management and website design & build, helping businesses create and maintain engaging, search-friendly websites that support growth and user experience. Over the years, I’ve worked with clients across a wide range of industries, developing bespoke websites and brand guidelines tailored to their unique needs. While I started out building responsive WordPress sites using themes like Bridge, Elementor, Salient, Betheme, and Avada—supported by custom HTML and CSS—I now focus primarily on Shopify eCommerce stores, managing content, optimising for SEO, and ensuring the sites continue to evolve with the business.
