About

Hey, I’m Rhys, I’m passionate about the web and driving business success online through great user experiences. I've got over 7 years commercial experience as a Front-End Developer building a wide range of exciting range of webistes and apps.

Hailing from the tropical England and web trained in the beautiful Portland Oregon, USA. When I’m not exploring new technologies I love to travel the world, watch loud live music, talk politics and go hiking when I can dodge the UK rain.

Currently accepting work. Let’s talk.
