04 / About Andrew
Self-taught, detail-led and still curious.
Andrew Graham is a self-taught programmer with more than 15 years of hands-on experience building websites, applications and the systems that keep organisations moving.
His route into software was driven by curiosity: understanding how systems work, identifying where they fall short and learning how to improve them. That practical foundation now informs a calm, commercially aware approach to complex technical work.
Is essentially a showcase site for him working as a programming freelancer. Should list services he offers (database optimization, web dev etc.) - make about 8 services. Also make a list of references of previous projects, they should link to the following (and say he made the websites and systems behind them): https://littleoneslondon.co.uk/ https://alicek.design/ https://www.webheads.co.uk/ https://www.kensington-nannies.co.uk/ https://www.thewebkitchen.co.uk/ Each reference should have a description of when the work was done, what was done and the clients satisfaction. Include about me that talk about how he is self taught and has 15+ years of experience in programming. Make the site in general VERY visually appealing.
Plain communicationClear decisions without unnecessary jargon.
Practical architectureTechnology proportionate to the problem.
Careful deliveryMaintainability considered from the start.
Direct accountabilityYou work with the engineer doing the work.
