About - A practical approach to building things

I work directly with small businesses and teams to design and build websites and systems that are clear, reliable, and easy to use.

I’m Oliver, a UK-based developer with experience working both independently and within agency teams on a range of client and internal projects.

My focus is on building things that solve real problems — whether that’s helping a business get more enquiries, streamlining admin, or creating tools that are easier to manage day-to-day.

  • Direct communication. You work directly with the person building your project — no handovers, no account managers, no confusion.
  • Agency experience. Experience delivering projects within established agencies, combined with the flexibility of working independently.
  • Small business focused. Most projects are built for small teams that want clarity, speed, and sensible solutions.
