WHAT I DO
Working In The Cloud
My experience has been primarially working with Microsoft Azure but I've had abundence of experience provisioning infrastructure in the cloud. Hosting servers and serverless solutions in the cloud to overseeing the saving of costs by optimising software and downgrading app service plans.
Mobile Applications
I am very interested in mobile apps, I have created applications on android platforms. One App I created was for a ski resort called BUQA. The app provided weather information for the resort and emergency contact information which also provided location services.
ECOMMERCE
Understanding how an Ecommerce site works and working under a team of skilled developers who have developed database driven Ecommerce sites to be reliable and easy accessible at all times has been one of my greatest moments. I would love to help small businesses or developers on any ecommerce sites in the foreseeable future
Lead Generation
I love connecting consumers with products they can enjoy, my passion is around the innovotive ways we can capture consumers data, enrich that data and provide better services to help that consumer get what they want out of their journey. We know platforms like Facebook & Google ads can do this but we can think outside of the box and we can capture information in a more innovitve way that will increase the consumers journey rather than just another advert.
Security
Being a developer I have seen and come to revise heavily on security. I have been involved in many situations where understanding security has been an eye opening role. From SQL injection vulnerabilities, Ransom demands from offshore DDOS Attacks, viruses, keyloggers, Password Hashing Requirements and becoming PCI Compliant.
RESPONSIVE LAYOUT
Why make changes on the front end? When you can make changes in the database. A lot of ecommerce sites now depend on databases, a simple change on the database can change how the front end of your website looks. This could be prices, descriptions, ratings, reviews and more. Using javascript and css you can also now give sites a more responsive intelligent design based on user interaction! I have designed and understand responsive design.
