Mark Jenner

So, who am I?

On a personal level ..

Well, my name is Mark and this is my portfolio. I'm a front-end designer from Surrey, just outside of London, England.

I've been designing for just over 6 years now and I still haven't lost the enthusiasm and drive. I doubt I ever will! I'm always looking to increase my knowledge, keeping an eager eye out for the latest design trends. My inspiration comes from all over; people I meet, buildings I see, places I visit.

In my spare time I can be found kicking back listening to music, playing football (Arsenal fan here. Sorry.), or spending quality time with my friends and family.

On a professional level ..

I would in no way consider myself 100% versed in all aspects of Web Design. If anyone ever tells you they are then they're lying. To be honest, with technologies changing and updating so frequently, I don't think anyone can say they are. That is one of the beauties of this industry, there's always something new to learn. I'm very open about what I can and can't do.I am extremely comfortable coding Standards Compliant websites, converting PSD's to valid HTML, creating Wordpress Themes for blogs and other CMS based websites. I'm extremely comfortable around the Adobe package, especially Photoshop and Illustrator. I'm not a big fan of the bloated code DreamWeaver spits out so I hand code everything in trusty MS Notepad. What I can't do (at the moment) is very much the backend side of things. I'm eager to learn it, but at this moment in time I cannot code PHP and set up databases on a high quality professional level.

If there's anything else you'd like to know, or you think we'd work well together on one of you up-coming projects, please feel free to drop me an email
