about me

I am a freelance Game Developer and specialist in online social/casual gaming and technology with a strong background in digital and advertising, including:

• Creating games, building minisites, developing Facebook apps, complex media creative, animating television programs.

I have extensive experience in developing localisable Flash for international markets for many large clients including:

• Disney, Xbox, Lego, BBC, Skoda, Proctor & Gamble, Chorion and Department for Transport.

I have led the development of many projects as part of a team to deliver outstanding work. I have worked to create processes and documentation to help communication and teamwork between developers, designers, producers.

I am a creative problem solver that can resolve issues with no obvious solution. I am able to work under pressure with tight deadlines by managing workload and expectations. I have been involved in projects for the full development life cycle, including: pitching, brainstorming, scoping, prototyping, build, delivery and maintenance.

I am very interested in new technology and presented an elevator pitch on Unity 3D at Flash on the Beach 2010. I also co-founded and run the London Unity Usergroup at London Southbank University.
