Welcome to my web portfolio site, where you can find out more about my skills and previous work. I have over 10 years commercial experience in the web industry, working on a wide range of websites for large and small companies.
I am keen to ensure websites are viewable on as many devices as possible and available to as many people as possible, therefore responsive design and accessible websites are important elements of web design and development for me.
Please scroll down and take a look at my skills, work, recommendations and more below. Let me know if I can help with your projects by using my contact form.

"I've worked with Terry on a good number of projects and change initiatives over the last few years and I'm always happy when I see he's been assigned to the development work.
Terry is not only very competent technically, but he's also a good communicator - something I believe to be an equally important skill in his area of expertise - which is what makes Terry stands out as a web developer."
- Digital Savings Journey Manager, Royal Bank of Scotland
"I've worked with Terry for 7 months at RAC. Offering a wealth of development experience, strong
communication skills, a calm composure and a friendly personality, Terry has been an absolute pleasure to have in the team.
Terry has never backed away from a challenge during his time at the RAC, often taking the lead on complex project components/bugs,
supporting less experienced members without being asked to do and self managing his workflow. Its quite rare to find such a well rounded developer.
The team here at the RAC are all sad to see Terry move on but I wouldn't even think twice about asking him to come back in the future."
- Digital Project Manager, RAC Motoring Services
"Terry understands what is expected from a contractor. He is enthusiastic, task oriented and self
starting. A joy to have in the team and technically extremely competent. I would recommend him to anyone who needs talented front
end contractors to get the job done."
- Digital Development Manager, RAC Motoring Services
"A very talented web developer/programmer, I have worked alongside
Terry for about 6 years, and have always felt comforted when he has been part of the projects I have ran. Calm, attentive to detail,
analytical, helpful and forthcoming with suggestions, he takes control, produces excellent solutions, and is rather quite humble about
the whole thing! This guy is doing great stuff and will continue to excel."
- Digital Project Manager, Royal Bank of Scotland
"Terry is a highly valued member of the development team. With a calm demeanour and extensive knowledge he
always gives prized input, and continuously strives to go beyond and help other team members whenever possible. Whether working on time
sensitive projects or lower priority tasks he maintains a great level of attention to detail, ensuring the development is done to the
highest possible standard, and it has always been a pleasure to work alongside him."
- Front End Developer, RAC Motoring Services
"Terry reviewed the business and operational requirements needed
to develop an appropriate solution tailored to Private customers’ needs. This solution could be developed and updated in-house saving
the project both time and money. His ability to resolve complex problems in constantly changing environments, and his can-do
attitude, made him a pleasure to work with"
- Private Digital Journey Manager, Royal Bank of Scotland
"Terry is highly knowledgeable web developer who has fantastic
interpersonal skills. His ability to understand the business problem as well technical one is a real advantage over his peers, as
it enables him to really add value."
- MTA Digital Sales Journey Manager, Royal Bank of Scotland
"He is very intelligent, approachable, structured and is a
widely recognised pillar of the Digital team. Continually going above and beyond for the benefit of the team and will always
present alternative views and efficiencies which will arrive at a more effective solution. It is enjoyable and rewarding to
work with Terry, and I believe he will be an asset in any future project or role."

I've worked in both corporate and agency environments - large and small, working on various website projects.

I have been brought in to assist on RAC's Responsive Project - rebuilding their website to work on a range of devices
I was at Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) working as a developer on NatWest and RBS customer facing brochureware websites NatWest.com and RBS.co.uk. The business critical nature of these websites meant that I am accustomed to working to exceptionally high standards, with time constraints and multiple stakeholders.
I developed key features of the sites including:
Please get in touch if you would like to know more about my previous role at RBS.
I've worked with EMO Unlimited on several occasions, most recently building a responsive website for a global automotive client. I've also previously built email templates, supported in a range of email clients.
I've worked with McCann Bristol on several projects, focusing on responsive website builds for clients in the healthcare, utilities, and automotive servicing sectors.
Working with Realise (Digital Agency in Edinburgh), I built a brand new responsive website (front end development focus) for a financial client using HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap. Worked closely with Angular and .NET Developer to integrate. Agile project.

As an I.T. freelancer I needed a web presence for the company I operate under - Red Spark Digital Ltd. I took this opportunity to develop my skills by using Bootstrap (version 3). Learning to use this framework enabled me to build a customised and responsive website in a fraction of the time usually needed.

This website was built as part of a project to improve my skills using the Foundation (version 5) framework. Again this has allowed me to build a highly personalised and responsive website efficiently and quickly.
WordPress, HTML5, CSS3, PHP, Adode Photoshop

Using WordPress alongside customised PHP templates has allowed me to significantly tailor the webpages to suit requirements, while maintaining a straightforward content management process.
This site has also enabled me to gain further experience in digital marketing. Social media such as Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and Reddit has helped bring relevant visitors to the site, with low bounce rates. Analysing Google and Bing Webmaster Tools has given me valuable insights on how to change content and adapt the site to improve SEO. Using Google Analytics has allowed me to analyse how visitors move around the site, and make relevant changes to deliver an improved user experience.
This site is here to highlight my web skills and work, but there is more to me than just web. I want to give an idea of what I like to do away from work.
I enjoy photography and recently completed an assessed 10-week course on digital photography at Edinburgh College of Art. I particularly like using long exposures in low light to create abstracted images.
Travel is another interest of mine. I enjoy experiencing different cultures and seeing new places. I recently visited Japan and liked it so much I set up Japan Trip to help others plan their travels.
Coming from the red side of Liverpool, I support Liverpool FC and go to the odd match when I'm back home. I also enjoy watching F1 racing (or 'driving round in circles' as my wife says).
I try to keep fit by running and playing the occasional game of tennis.
