David Price

Front End Web Developer

Having graduated with a Fine Art degree in 2014, I taught myself HTML and CSS to earn my first Web Developer & Designer position in 2015.

Over the last 9 years I have pushed myself to learn new skills and work with new tech, from JavaScript and WordPress to React and Next.js. I take pride in ensuring my websites are responsive, accessible, modular, organised, and fast to load.

I believe my creative background helps me approach problem solving and UI from a unique perspective.
