In short...
Full Stack Web Developer currently working for Market South with clients from all over NZ out of the little but awesome Invercargill, New Zealand.
Strengths and Skills 💪
Take a realistic approach to solving problems using this best tool for the job mixing in new technologies where it will enhance the end result.
Have a passion for learning both new technologies and improving workflows and best practices.
Solving problems for clients that create efficiency for them and/or their customers is where I thrive.
Never settle for "Good enough" when I ran my Web Development company we won contracts on our attention to detail.
After years of working in sales and running an I.T company I have developed a great ability to distil an idea, technology or anything else down to its core and communicating it.
Your greatest strength is to know your weaknesses.
