About Me

Hi, I'm Paddy—a Web Developer with a creative flair. My journey began in Graphic Design at Chichester College, but my passion for making "cool stuff" quickly drew me into web development. In the early 2000s, I dabbled in styling MySpace profiles and building small gaming websites on platforms like Angelfire.

I explored game development using tools like Clickteam Fusion, Ren'Py, and RPG Maker, which led me to pick up some Python and Ruby along the way. However, it wasn't until the birth of my first child that I decided to take programming seriously as a career so I enrolled in an online bootcamp to learn modern coding standards and refine my skills.

Since then, I've worked as a freelancer and as a Software Engineer at a cybersecurity firm. Today, my passion lies in crafting high-performance, and engaging websites that help businesses stand out online.
