I love to explore new ideas, the great outdoors and my own back yard

full body james barnsleyI'm a Dunedin-born, Blenheim-based digital designer and developer. Starting my creative career at the Otago Daily Times as a Creative Artist, I established a solid foundation for what 'feels' right, and communicates effectively. My hunger to explore technical challenges took me to Wellington and to PlasticStudio (now PS/digital) for nearly 10 years. Now working in product development at Tātou as Technical Director I'm diving further into building amazing tech and loving every minute of it.

I love helping customers solve their challenges. It is the satisfaction of building beautiful designs for clean code to serve a real purpose that drives me.

 

 

A stunner of a day at the top of Paekakariki, looking towards Kapiti Island, WellingtonOut of the office, I'm a husband and dad. Although young Harry and Lauchlan aren't quite old enough to ride a road bike, we love getting fresh air with our family cycling adventures. It's a great way to see the country and with recent efforts in the Graperide and Taupo Cycle Challenge events, I'm looking to spend even more time in the saddle.

I love the water, and enjoy being in, on and around it. Although I have to admit that I'm one of those "Sunday Surfers" that doesn't really know how to pick the wave, but I'll see you out there!
