Ingredients

Brief overview

I am a conscientious and dedicated individual that enjoys the pressure and fast pace that the web demands. Leading the company forward through knowledge, expertise and a delivery focused culture.

My role within the organisation demands me to be multi-skilled. On a daily basis I am required to liaise and project manage changes through the delivery process. These range in size from micro-site/campaign pages to thousand page site redesigns. I have very strong communication skills with internal and external clients and suppliers.
