My name is Elise Maile and I simply love front-end coding.
Perfectly comfortable coding in HTML5 and CSS3, designing in Photoshop, or supporting clients in Wordpress or on social media, I believe websites should always be user friendly and forward thinking.
I am currently looking for contract work in the London area where I can put my skills to good use and work effectively in a team environment.
Not only do I enjoy front-end coding, I also have an appreciation for science and art, whether it's designing in Adobe Photoshop or consuming films or literature, or physics videos on YouTube. I've been known to pick up a paintbrush on occasion (both DIY and artisticlly), dabble in gardening and spend an evening decorating my nails. I also enjoy running and baking.
I like to continue bettering myself so recently I have been expanding my skill set by learning javascript and refreshing my JQuery knowledge, as well as some PHP using Codecademy and Treehouse. I have experimented with various e-commerce solutions available, specifically those offered by WordPress. I hope to continue learning and growing through the knowledge of others and through real work experience.
If you are interested in hiring me as a freelancer or have a project you think I might be interested in please contact me. My CV is available on request.
Hi, my name is Elise and I am a freelance website designer and front-end developer. I love to code, I love creating successful, user-friendly websites that excite my clients and their users, giving everyone the power to own and run a piece of the web.
Other work (web, graphical) and code updates can be seen on my blog
I’ve been designing on computers since I was 13. Before that I was a good drawer and painter, but as soon as I got my first computer I began creating ‘Cartoon Dolls’ – images of small dolls with clothes drawn on first in Windows Paint and later in Paint Shop Pro. When I was 15 I taught myself the language of the web: HTML, in notepad in order to display my designs on my own website. I still have all my old cartoon doll designs.
In 2005 I went to St Mary’s University College to study English and Media Arts. I concentrated on Photoshop and later Web Design in my Media Arts course and gained the first ever 100% in a media module for a Christmas themed flash animation. I graduated with a 2:1 and a part-time job working for Controlled Projects Ltd. as a junior web designer. I have since worked part-time at St Mary’s University College as a learning support assistant; teaching the students the same skills that were taught to me, and I have built numerous websites for smaller businesses.
Since 2008 I have been working mainly as a contractor to Controlled Projects Ltd and my job description has evolved to include an important role in the redesign(s) of their change control system (used by Gatwick Airport, Costain and EC Harris) and the maintenance of the CSS and HTML. I have also gained experience in the creation and maintenance of wikis, WordPress blogging and a basic understanding of .asp, xml and xsl. The most recent version of their change control system has been built using HTML5, CSS3 and has a strong focus on responsive design.
If you are interested in hiring me as a freelancer or have a project you think I might be interested in please contact me. My CV and is available on request.
I am currently interested in front-end development roles, as either a one-off project or in a freelance or contract role.
