Most of the example work can be found at the BBC due to a 5-6 year tenure at BBC News Online. As well as refactoring and extending the News and Sports pages, tasks included crafting NewsWatch, PDA, Election 2005 and some of the foreign language sites.

More recently i have designed and coded smaller sites for local businesses while working towards a Modern Languages (BA Hons). In addition, the Librophile.com project was designed to showcase my understanding of some Web 2.0 technologies.
