About Me
I’m a junior web designer based near Manchester with a strong interest in creating clean, user-friendly digital experiences.
I mainly work with HTML, CSS and JavaScript, focusing on building responsive layouts and improving my front-end development skills.
I enjoy taking designs and turning them into functional, well-structured websites, and I’m currently looking for an opportunity to grow within a team where I can continue learning and developing my skills.

HTML
Im able to build clean, semantic HTML structures that prioritize accessibility, SEO, and maintainability. My markup provides a solid foundation for responsive, scalable web interfaces.
CSS
I can create responsive, visually consistent layouts using modern CSS techniques including Flexbox, Grid, animations, and custom design systems. I focus on clean structure and maintainable styling.
JAVASCRIPT
I use JavaScript to add interactivity and basic functionality to websites. I’m comfortable working with the DOM and learning modern ES6 features.
REACT
I am currently learning React and building small projects to understand component structure, props, state, and basic hooks. I’m actively improving through practice and hands-on experience.
GIT
I am able to use Git for version control on personal and collaborative projects. I’m familiar with repositories, commits, branches, and GitHub workflows.
PYTHON
I can use Python for scripting and problem-solving. Very familiar with writing clean, efficient code and working with libraries to build practical solutions.
DESIGN
I translate ideas into clean, user-focused designs using tools like Figma. I value usability, visual hierarchy, and consistency to create intuitive digital experiences.
- My Projects -
Xenos Koding
During my time at Code Nation, i had to make a project to show of what i learned during the course such as spacing, typograhpy, readability, responsiveness and even media queries. This website was just about me and my personal interests at the time. I also included a few optional things like a login page and an interactive map.

First Project - Automarket
With a bit of help of AI, this was the first website i made that peaked my interest. I wanted to build a site that had full responsiveness and learn how to achieve ideal layouts using flexbox and/or grids. In the future it maybe updated as i develop more skills and add more features.
Live Site: Auto Market
Current Project
I am currently working on a project that will improve on an exisiting site in my own design and practice some more javascript.
