Profile


colin gourlay's mugshot

I have recently emigrated from Scotland, where I obtained my Honours Degree in Applied Computing. In September my partner and I moved to the Gold Coast, Australia to continue our careers and start a family.

I have been working as a freelance web designer/developer throughout my university career - a talent which has been heavily inspired by my user-centred software design experience. My largest interest is in web applications development, using both PHP and Django/Python. I am currently expanding my language proficiency by experimenting with Ruby On Rails and some of the leading PHP-based web application frameworks.

I can provide a variety of services to you as a client. Have a look through my portfolio to view some of my most recent work. I'd love to hear your opinion, so please, send me a message.
