How I Work

Great results start with a great working process

It can be stressful handing over your beautiful designs to a developer you’ve never worked with before - so let me put your mind at ease.

What I care about.

Accessibility first.

It’s important that your website is accessible to everyone. Clean, semantic, accessible markup is my default. I can advise on design decisions that impact accessibility, without compromising your visuals.

Delivering on time, and on budget.

Your project will be in good hands - I try to never over-book myself, so I can give each client and project the focus it deserves.

Good communication.

I reply to emails fast (often within minutes) and keep you in the loop at every stage. You’ll always know what’s done, what's next, and what's needed.

Clean, documented code.

My work is tidy, documented, and future-friendly - ideal for projects that may change hands or useful for quickly jumping back in after a long break.

My setup.

I work with many agencies, most of which have their own way of working, so I can be flexible on how things are done.

When left to my own devices, this is my preferred setup:

  • HTML, CSS & JS
  • Gulp
  • BEM & ITCSS methodologies
  • Custom responsive code
  • WordPress using ACF or Gutenberg
  • Figma for design & prototyping
  • GitHub for version control
  • Slack and ClickUp for communication & project management

How I work

Reusable components & style guides.

I build modular sites using components that can be reused across pages. A live style guide helps everyone stay consistent.

Project management.

If you have a system, I’ll use it. If not, I’ll set up a ClickUp board and invite whoever needs access.

Version control.

All code is pushed to Git, with clear, meaningful commit messages and using branches and pull requests for features.

Browser & device testing.

I test on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge - on large desktop size, all the way down to Galaxy Fold size. HTML emails are tested in Litmus, across dozens of email clients.

Working together.

Agency, freelancer or small studio - I want our collaboration to feel easy and stress-free

Here’s what you can expect from me:

  • Fast, clear communication
  • Sensible deadlines
  • Accessible, semantic, well-documented code
  • Flexibility: I can join your team or work solo
  • A contract and NDA ready to go
  • For parts of the project I can’t help with, I have other freelancers I collaborate with.

Here’s what helps me work best:

  • A well-scoped brief (or a consultation call to write one together)
  • Clear deadlines and timely feedback
  • Prompt replies to unblock me
  • Respect for working hours and IR35 rules

Rates & Billing.

I’m VAT registered and offer flexible billing options to suit the project. Whether it’s a fixed price for a full build, daily or half-daily support, or hourly billing for smaller tasks - I’ll work with you to find the right setup.

For larger projects, I’m happy to break billing into monthly stages if needed.

Standard terms are:

  • 50% deposit before work commences
  • Balance due on completion
  • Invoices payable within 14 days (unless agreed otherwise)

I currently have some capacity for new projects. Drop me a message via email and I’ll get back to you shortly.
