Daniel Ogden

I’m an experienced front-end developer with a passion for code quality, polished interfaces, and working with teams to solve problems. I love delightful interactions and subtle animations.

About me

Developer

My development experience has taught me that a site built in a clean and simpe manner will be more browser-compatible, have fewer bugs, will be more flexible and easier to maintain, and will scale better in future. I always aim leave a project in a better state than I found it.

Responsive and mobile-first development is my bread-and-butter, GIT is my saviour, and I’m a huge fan of SASS and React.

I’m very conscious of perceived load times and getting sites to load better and faster.

Collaborator

I love working with design and project management during all stages of a project to take advantage of technologies available (or steer away from risky solutions if necessary), and to ensure the original vision and goals are carried through to the build.

I want a user’s experience to be easy, delightful and simple, and I want that of a team’s experience in working with me too.

I’m a clear and positive communicator and love working with other experts doing what they love and what they’re great at.

Human

Listening to new music is a favourite pastime - it’s a great mood boost and helps me focus. I like the idea of getting a tattoo but am struggling with committment.

I enjoy the beach, the snow, and anything involving relaxing, and one day will own a house on a cliff with floor-to-ceiling windows so I can watch the wild sea storms from my cosy couch/desk/bed.

I work hard to make sure that the people I work with are listened to, supported and are excited to work with me.
