About.

I am Greg Merriman. I designed and built this website.

Thank you very much for stopping by to take a look. What can I do for you? Why not get in touch?

A bit more about me.

I describe myself as a Web Developer (with an eye for design), and I am based in South Wales.

I graduated from the University of Wales, Swansea with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Computer Science.

I started my web development career and cut my web development teeth with the exciting Fresh Ties project, developing a social-networking web site - including user registration systems, blogs, a custom made content management system and other interactive web-based applications. I then moved onto fibre-to-the-home infrastructure provider Independent Fibre Networks, also working for the fibre-to-the-home internet service provider (ISP) seethelight - where I was responsible for three public facing websites and building in-house web applications.

I am currently working for Imaginet. A leading web design and development agency, creating award winning websites and bespoke on-line solutions that deliver results. You really should check them out...

A bit about my skills.

I began developing websites as part of my University degree course. Several years on, and most of my design and development skills and knowledge have been self taught. I have been lucky enough to work with some great people who have encouraged me to learn more and more each and every day. In so doing, building a base of skills and knowledge that can only hold me in good stead and help deliver the right and proper solution for whatever website or web application I am working on.

A bit about this website.

This website has been developed using PHP, with standards compliant XHTML and CSS. It has also been built with accessibility in mind - just like all the websites I build.

I have to thank DryIcons for creating some of the most beautiful icons you can find out there on the web - and I have used the odd icon throughout the site, which I cannot take credit for.

May I thank all the great people I have worked with throughout my career for making me the Web Developer/Designer I am today. And most of all, to Bethan, for making me the person I am today.
