After several months of freelancing and travel, I’m returning home to find a full-time position as an interface/web designer (so if you you know of anything please let me know). Since being away we’ve chosen two new parties to govern the country, retired BBC Radio 6, had a new Britain’s got talent winner, and discovered the ending to Lost. So while eager to catch-up on all the Brit culture I’ve missed, I’m even more excited to get back to working with a team and building something ace. I’m hugely passionate about the web and designing interfaces that affect it’s users in positive ways. Since studying Interaction design and making a career out of it these past five-years I’ve never once had a dull moment because I love learning, and at the pace that this field moves in it’s impossible not be learning something new every week, day, and hour. Recently this has taken the form of Verb, a small one-man company run by me, that has taught me a great deal about the importance of the process and client-management. The biggest project to date has been the design and development of the magazine website ‘El Europeo’, which allowed me to cut-my-teeth with ExpressionEngine and work hard on making the web more readable. I loved this project, not only because of the team behind it (Paginá 13), but because it gave me the oppurtunity to design a website for a different culture, as well as run a project with an entirely Spanish-speaking team. This of course had it’s setbacks with the language, but with my slice-of-Intermediate Spanish and Gmails auto-translator the project was launched May 1st, and has already claimed the following of some internationally respected economists, as well as a large reader-base; to read more, check out the Projects page where I'll soon have the case-study on how all this was achieved. Moving on to today and I’m about to head-out to see England play Algeria in the World Cup. The tournament so far has been great and the weather here in Barcelona beautiful, but I'm missing some Wimbledon and English ale to season my summer, not to mention the music festivals and outdoor cinemas. So expect me back soon, or at least as soon as I've updated my resume and trimmed my beard. Right then, where did I put my hat.
