About
I build websites for fun, and sometimes for money. I design and build them for the cafés, barbers, studios and shops you walk past every day.
I'm studying Design Innovation at Victoria University of Wellington, majoring in Interaction Design. Every site I make is designed around the business it's for, not squeezed into a template, so it fits them instead of the other way round.
