About
I am James Crooke; a Web Applications Developer from Derby, working in Derby.
I was born in Derby in 1984 and spent most of my childhood in Washington, Tyne & Wear. I moved back to Derby as a teenager and graduated from the University of Derby with a First Class BSc Hons Degree in Digital Entertainment (Computer Studies) in 2006.
I decided to follow a career in what I enjoy doing and what I’m good at; programming. I’m a qualified Games Programmer but I found Web Development more of a healthy balance between programming and UI Design; which I also enjoy. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been into creating things and making them work - I probably get that from my Dad, who can make anything work.
I’m quite busy these days with a few various projects, so you probably won’t see this site updated very often - but it’s here just to remind me of who I am and also to ensure nobody else takes my .co.uk address 
If you ever want to hire me, get in touch. If you want to host your site on one of my UK-based servers, prices start from £20…
