about me...
I'm as simple single page application created using the React Framework, Gatsby. I currently reside on the Netlify CDN, a high performance hosting service that builds me prior to deployment to ensure a super slick experience to those who wish to visit me.
I'm told that over time I'll become more, a headless CMS will be hooked up so I can use my GraphQL skills to build a site that will be fresh with new content and seperate code from content.
... but what about Alex?
I'm an IT professional who specialises in web development, primarily front end but have years of experience working with backend technologies as well as systems admin. At present I'm available for freelance work and contract work.
I live in sunny Spain and operate a small web dev and hosting service for over 100 clients. You can view more details on my career on the timeline page.
recent web projects
For over 10 years now I've been working remotely from my office in Spain for 2 large IT companies based in the UK. Both were full-time contracts. At present i'm working on a freelance basis for the latter of the two - waracle. Sadly i can't showcase any of this so i'm building up a portfolio of recent work I've carried out for small to medium business in the UK and Spain.
EDI Rent A Car are a British family run business based in El Campello about 20 minutes north of Alicante Airport. All of the staff are English speaking as well as fluent in Spanish. They needed a modern website that allowed potential clients to obtain a quote based on their pricing system, as well as the capability to have the site presented in multiple languages.
