I write valid, lean & semantic markup that is search friendly and accessible
CSS
My code is written to make use of advanced CSS 2.1 & 3 rules that will degrade gracefully on older browsers
jQuery
Using a Javascript library allows me to work fast, write lean code and also produce rich interface effects
PHP
I use PHP to create basic dynamic effects, and integrate my code with that of a back-end developer
ExpressionEngine
If a back-end is required on a site I turn to ExpressionEngine to allow users to edit and post content through a simple interface
Wordpress
For smaller sites or for projects that are more suitable I also use Wordpress to allow clients to update their own content, the admin area is particularly user-friendly
Photoshop
My design tool of choice allowing me to create or manipulate existing designs
