Welcome
Hi, my name is James and this is my portfolio. On this site I showcase some of my best projects. I also include a list of blog posts that I've written which I found to be either insightful or entertaining.
If you need a skilled programmer I'm currently available for hire. I'm pretty good at both front and back-end web development. I also have lots of experience with low level system programming in C & C++.
