I’m one of those cross-breeds between designer and programmer that is either multi-skilled, or not very good at a lot of things, depending on the way you look at it. Since I’m a partner in Ingredients, a web design and development business in a non-urban part of Australia, being multi-skilled is really a necessity. I began working professionally as a designer in 1990, began web designing in 1998 and PHP programming in 2000. Right now this is just a notepad for information I pick up that I find useful.

After moving to Australia from the United Kingdom and working in Sydney for a while, Sandra and I began providing consultancy services in 1996. Initially trading in Sydney as “Lab2 Design Unit” we provided clothing and graphic design, drafting and product development services for clients like Bonds, O’Neill Australia, SMP, Sara Lee Apparel (Australasia) and more.

Around 1998, I started developing websites remotely for clients in San Francisco and we have focussed on web design and development since then. Partly due to the mobility this afforded us and as fairly recent migrants to Australia we decided it was time to experience a bit more than just Sydney and moved up North, finally settling in Byron Bay.
