NHS Future Focused Finance Planning Platform

The NHS Future Focused Finance Maturity Tool revolutionized financial planning for Trust managers across the UK healthcare system. I was tasked with analyzing and replacing an unwieldy, multi-tabbed Excel spreadsheet that had become a significant pain point for healthcare finance teams nationwide. Through careful analysis and thoughtful reimagining of the user experience, I developed a sophisticated yet intuitive online platform that not only replicated the necessary calculations but dramatically improved usability, data integrity, and decision-making capabilities.

Gary is very good, use him!

Eastpak Artist Studio Charity Auction

Architected and implemented an exclusive digital marketplace showcasing custom Eastpak backpacks designed by celebrated artists including Jean Paul Gaultier. This 24-hour live auction event created competitive bidding experiences for each unique piece, with all proceeds benefiting Designers Against AIDS charity.

Engineered the complete auction ecosystem from the ground up, including a responsive React-based frontend and a robust Node.js backend with real-time websocket technology. The platform delivered flawless performance under high-traffic conditions, successfully processing hundreds of competitive bids with zero downtime during this high-profile charity initiative.

This project was a huge success and quite a technical achievement. Gary was able to deliver a fully functional auction platform in a relatively short time frame. The auction ran flawlessly and we raised a lot of money for charity.

Wrangler Leatherman Immersive Experience

Created a cutting-edge marketing showcase for Wrangler Europe's Leatherman collection that transformed conventional product marketing into an immersive digital experience. This sophisticated implementation featured section-based viewport snapping with distinct animation sequences for each product narrative.

Developed a pioneering technical solution that addressed the inherent performance challenges of animation-heavy web experiences. By implementing innovative DOM management techniques that dynamically loaded and unloaded content based on viewport proximity, I delivered a seamless, high-performance experience that showcased both the premium nature of the Leatherman collection and technical excellence in frontend development.

You always delivered great solutions to whatever the UX/UI team gave you and Wrangler Leatherman was no exception. Your idea to set a vertical boundary 3 times the viewport height, outside of which the complex UI sections would be removed from the DOM, thus saving memory and CPU, really allowed the design to come to life.

Digital Experiences for Global Music Icons

Created a portfolio of sophisticated digital platforms for Universal Music's premier artists, each designed to extend their unique creative vision into the digital realm. These artist-specific microsites required both engaging fan-facing experiences and robust backend systems that empowered artists to maintain direct control over their digital presence.

Each platform featured meticulously crafted frontends that translated album artwork and artistic aesthetics into interactive digital environments. These experiences were brought to life through advanced JavaScript implementations, creating signature animations and interactions that reinforced each artist's distinctive identity while delivering exceptional user experiences across all devices.

I've never known anyone to put mushroom powder and coconut blossom nectar in their brews but his implementations of our designs were always really creative and well thought out. He was always able to come up with solutions to tricky design problems and was a pleasure to work with.

Hannah Tomlinson, Lead Designer

I was most impressed with the breadth of your knowledge and the speed at which you were able to deliver. You were able to quickly understand the requirements and deliver a solution that was both performant and scalable. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a developer who can deliver.
