Experience

At Elemental Web Solutions, I was a commercial front-end developer. I created beautiful websites using HTML, CSS, jQuery, JavaScript, PHP and MCV for custom websites, as well as WordPress sites for a variety of clients.

All the sites that I built conformed to the latest SEO standards, were highly responsive for mobile, and compressed to ensure the best speed possible and compatibility with all modern desktop and mobile internet browsers.

I was also responsible for keeping sites up to date, or adding additional pages or elements to existing clients through monthly service level agreements.

My former employer, Elemental Web Solutions, created bespoke websites for international clients with custom ECMS, SEO, and website optimization. Elemental is one of the leading web development agencies in South Africa and used groundbreaking technologies and frameworks to match individual client needs.

In December 2019, I started my employment at 24.com where I am currently employed and hold the position of Technical Support Consultant, where my role is managing and assisting with digital ad campaigns across the 24.com network. My responsibilities encompass programmatic and direct ad campaigns, ensuring their seamless execution and optimization. Additionally, I am actively involved in the development of new features and provide critical troubleshooting support to address any arising issues. My contributions to the team consistently reinforce the high-quality standards of our digital advertising solutions, driving the success of the 24.com network and enhancing the user experience on web, mobile web and app for the digital media offerings by 24.com for online news and publications.

I work mostly with the Google Ad Manager network and am currently developing my programming skills further with C# and React Native.

For fun I enjoy working on My Expert Advisor which is an algorithm trading bot which runs on Meta Trader 4 and uses the Meta Quotes Language (.mql), which is very similar to C#. Further I really enjoy doing wordpress site and often times I am in active development of Wordpress projects.
