Professional Freelance Web Developer
CodeIgniter Activist, Caffeine Junkie

Twitter is quickly becoming one of the fastest communication networks around. So why should we leave our beautiful CodeIgniter Applications out of such a great think?

I love giving away code, writing articles, being a part of the developer community.

Hi! Glad you dropped by.
I'm a 23 year old freelance web developer currently living in Aberdeen whilst studying BSc Computing Science.
The web is certainly my passion. I care about building and maintaining really good applications that actually mean something. Freelancing isn't just my profession, it's a way of life for me, and I love to write and talk about freelance, the rewards and horrors.
I mainly write about web development.
It's great to receive feedback and opinion, so please feel free to comment and join the discussion.
I use 'FreeAgent' to track-time, create invoices, view reports, and calculate my tax. It's the perfect tool for a freelacer.
If you're a UK based freelancer, give it a go. It really does free up more time to actually work rather than messing around with admin tasks.
