Full Website Builds, Theme Development
Hi, Thanks for checking out my profile! I have been working with WordPress since 2009. In that time I have built websites for clients of all sizes, from blogger & sole traders, to multinational corporations. Prior to moving to website design & development, I spent eleven years in the print design industry - moving from printer, to pre-press to design, then senior design roles. I love nothing more than sitting down with a large mug of my favourite coffee, and getting stuck into some code, and watching a site take shape on screen. Although I have worked with many of the premium WordPress themes in the past, I prefer to build themes from my own starter-theme. This allows me to include only the code that is needed - this ensures the end site is as fast as possible. I believe in ensuring all work I do meets all accessibility requirements, is fast-loading and works on all modern devices and screen sizes. If you think I can help you with a task or project, be sure to ask - happy to guide or make suggestions to help you.
Skills
5/5
Mark did an absolutely outstanding job creating not only the website I wanted but offered guidance and suggestions that added value in designing a website that is beyond what I knew to look for. I have a comfort level that it was created and coded in a way that it will function well now with foresight that anticipates future needs. I highly recommend his services and will return to him myself for my future website needs.
