G'Day! This is Greg
About me
Full-stack developer with 26 years of experience in building web applications and dedicated CMS systems. I have been programming in PHP since 2000, combining backend, frontend, and the visual layer into a coherent whole.
Specialization
I design and develop dynamic web applications - from architecture, through PHP backend, to frontend.
I specialize in dedicated CMS systems and database-driven applications, built without off-the-shelf frameworks, with a focus on stability and long-term maintainability.
How I work / What sets me apart
I combine the skills of an architect, programmer, and designer - which allows me to run projects end-to-end, without technical chaos or compromises.
I independently design the architecture, write backend and frontend code, and ensure code clarity and long-term maintainability. I focus on stability, simplicity, and conscious technical decisions rather than blindly following trends.
Selected applications
Below are selected web applications in which I was involved from the architecture stage and the first line of code through to final deployment and the visual layer:

Full Stack Developer
Programming
PHP, MySQL
My programming expertise extends beyond just CMS solutions. While I specialize in developing complex CMS applications, my skills are equally valuable in creating simpler yet elegant websites. From the intricate to the straightforward, I leverage my programming skills to make every digital project a success.
Designing
mock-ups, logos
In addition to designing websites, I apply my design skills to breathe new life into old photographs, restoring their original vibrancy and colors. The art of revitalizing images is not just a skill but a passion that enhances my approach to all design work.
Coding
HTML, CSS, jQuery
I harness the power of the latest HTML and CSS versions to transform flat .psd or .pdf layouts into engaging, interactive, and visually captivating websites. With each project, I bring digital experiences to life through meticulous coding.
Animating
Flash
My journey in web development has seen me excel in animation, particularly with Flash. I've created a wide array of interactive animations, featuring intricate action scripting. While Flash has paved the way, I continue to explore new avenues in modern web animation techniques.
Skillset Expansion
As the web development landscape continually evolves, my commitment to growth remains unwavering. I strive to stay at the forefront of emerging technologies. While I embrace new learning, I also diligently maintain and update the skill set I've cultivated over the years.
Notable Collaborations
Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of collaborating with industry giants, including renowned names like Qantas - The Australian Airline and The Ritz-Carlton Residences. These collaborations reflect a track record of delivering excellence to some of the world's most prestigious brands.
