About

A mugshot of Mat

I'm a freelance web designer and developer hailing from Theale, now living and working in London. Right now I'm on the lookout for interesting work, so please get in touch — I'm especially interested in doing more work with charities and institutions.

Up until April 2010 I was the part-time Senior Client-Side Developer at Design UK.

The work you see on this site is specifically Demotive, but if you want to see some more, have a gander at the Design UK site - whatever you see there, chances are I've worked on it…

When I'm not working up a great big Osteo bill I like to skate, snowboard and cycle. And when I'm not doing any of that, which is more often than it should be these days, I like to read lots of books, watch films, visit exhibitions, sit in pubs, and learn geeky front end things.
