About Me
Hi, I’m Richard, a freelance website designer and developer based in Hereford with a passion for helping startups, local charities, and small businesses thrive through compelling visual identities. I combine creativity and innovation with years of technical expertise to deliver websites that not only look amazing but also work seamlessly to connect you with your audience.
For 30 years, I honed my skills in the corporate world, working with blue-chip companies and startups in banking, communications, and financial technology. My career began as a software and database engineer, and I later became a corporate technology manager. Along the way, I gained invaluable experience in brand, design, and marketing, collaborating with diverse teams to deliver impactful digital solutions.
In 2020, I made the bold decision to step away from the corporate grind of London and embrace freelance work to achieve better work-life balance. Now, I channel my expertise and passion into empowering small businesses to stand out in the digital landscape. I know what it takes to build something from the ground up, and I thrive on partnering with clients to bring their unique visions to life.
What sets me apart? I bring a rare combination of technical depth and a keen eye for design, along with the insight that comes from decades of corporate experience. I understand that every business has a story, and I’m here to help you tell yours in a way that’s authentic, engaging, and impactful. I also prioritize quality over quantity, taking on only one project at a time to ensure that every client receives the focus and dedication they deserve.
Whether you need a striking website, an intuitive user experience, or a digital refresh for your brand, I’m committed to delivering affordable solutions that exceed expectations. Customer satisfaction isn’t just a goal, it’s the foundation of everything I do.
