Freelance Web Developer London

Hello and welcome to the online portfolio of James Morrish!

I am a freelance web developer based in London, who creates stylish, dynamic and accessible websites. I build sites for all kinds of clients, from individuals and small companies, to large high-profile and social networking websites. I am passionate about web standards, accessibility and user experience.

I have a lot of experience in both front-end and server-side development and I build sites using Drupal 6 & 7, and Symphony CMS. I have worked as a technical lead on many projects, coordinating a team of developers.

I offer web design, development and hosting services, and use the following web development technologies:

about me

I am an experienced Web Developer living in London. I have a practical approach to web development and enjoy hand coding HTML, CSS and XSLT. I love jQuery and AJAX but code all my sites to allow for non JavaScript enabled browsers. I write PHP using the MVC framework CodeIgniter but I also build websites using the Symphony and Drupal content management systems.
