About Me
I was born in England, Nov 1980. From drawing and painting in junior school, to graduating with a BSc Hons in Design; creativity has always played a major role in my life. My work is my passion and for this, I am very grateful.
In July 2002, I founded a freelance graphic and web design business called Nodus Design. In November 2004, I closed Nodus to join a former client; Improving Futures Ltd (later named Frooition Ltd) full time as Chief Designer. In 2006 I was appointed as Creative Director, responsible for the company’s service development and delivery. During my time there, I introduced a new service to the eBay marketplace that generated over £1.6m in sales and an e-commerce website solution that quickly grew to facilitate over £4m client transactions a year.
In August 2009, I left Frooition for a new challenge and have subsequently taken on the role as Technical Director for an internet marketing / web consultancy company called Bizze Ltd. I’m also the owner of Aylis Ltd, a web-based software company. I love cooking, playing sport and driving fast cars fast.
