Skills & Experience
It’s inevitable that after nearly 20 years of development and keeping up to date with the latest in digital, web and marketing trends I’ve picked up a few skills along the way. During that time I’ve worked for large institutions such as Cardiff University as well as private sector creative companies like AB Multimedia – where I have gained a wealth of knowledge and experience.
As well as software engineering, web development, CMS development and other skills I have experience in web server infrastructure, servers, domains/dns management, deployment and automation tools and can provide end-to-end services from initial domain registration to site build and launch.
