I’m off the market. Proud to be part of the Octophin Digital team.
I’m looking for a new job and I’m a bit of a keeper – I’m looking for somewhere where I can stay a while, embed myself in the company and grow, so I thought rather than just going anywhere, I would see if I can get myself into the Gaming Industry. I have been coding for over 20 years, code is code, just different layouts and syntax, and I love learning new things.
Mapping Wasps
We are into the second year with the Big Wasp Survey, and as I type members of the public are being invited into help identify the thousands of wasps that have been sent in. I used Google MyMaps to present the 2017 results on a lovely whizzy mappy interface.. Check it out. It’s most fun with a big touchscreen. Read more →

Crash and burn.
My old faithful hosting company Cheapnet Internet has just gone under… Been with them for a good 12 years, man and boy… So if my website looks a bit ‘shonky’ or lacks content for a bit, just sit tight… I’m rebuilding. It’s quite traumatic… Read more →
E17 Art Trail
I started the E17 Art Trail in 2005 with Laura Kerry. It’s a bit unique, and a bit fabulous. Basically, it provides a framework for all of Walthamstow’s creative community to get out and show everyone what they can do. It started with 50 listings, with about 75 people exhibiting, and by 2015 we had 4000 participants in 350 events.… Read more →

Built… Read more →
Social Firms Info Mine
This site was a wonderful challenge. Funded by University of Middlesex and the social business sector, I had a number of masters to please. Thankfully they were all lovely people, and our meetings were fun and focussed. The clients had gathered loads of useful information and written lots of highly specific reports in the Social Firms sector; they needed… Read more →
Helen Maurer
I created this site for artist Helen Maurer. Like a lot of artists, Helen has a very clear idea of how she wanted her site to look, but it took us quite a while to get it from an idea to site that everyone was pleased with. The site has 2 sides, light and dark, and each is formatted exactly… Read more →
