During my freelance career i've designed and built custom WordPress projects, backend administration systems and LAMP based web projects for clients including Bond Brand Loyalty, The Ontario Trucking Association and Jensen Group to name a few. Prior to freelancing i was working in the corporate world as a lead web developer managing multiple projects at a time and coaching junior web developers.
