I build things.
On the web.
In the real world.
Developer, problem solver and business builder. From websites and software to hosting and hands-on services.
The person behind the projects.

A bit about me
I’m Alex, a developer based in Lancashire. I like understanding how things work, then finding a way to make them work better. That takes me from writing code to working on real projects — and often somewhere in between.
