I create amazing things.

With countless clients, I've created web sites and applications that have done what they want, when they want, all the while meeting their needs and those of their clients. The possibilities are limitless. Like what you see? Feel free to flick me an email.

I'm passionate about the web, mobile, UX, and creating applications that work as you'd expect them to.

As of November 2011, I work as a developer at Alphero, creating exciting and innovative solutions for equally exciting and innovative clients.

What others have to say

I couldn't have asked for anything better. You have made my vision exactly how I would have wanted it.

So, how would you describe yourself?

I'm Steven McTainsh, a web developer living in Hamilton, in the heart of New Zealand. I have over 5 years of experience in web development, and have worked with clients the world over, including Ireland, Canada, the United States and New Zealand. I am currently in my 4th & final year of a BCMS at The University of Waikato. I love music and movies, being an avid collector of both - my favourite artists at the moment are 3OH!3, Dane Rumble, Brooke Fraser, Olly Murs and OneRepublic. I also have my own blog about television and the media.

If you're interested in seeing my skill set and experience, download my CV on the right. For the technically inclined, I am skilled in (X)HTML, CSS, PHP, JavaScript (fluent in both native JavaScript and jQuery) and SQL, having the bulk of my experience with MySQL, but also Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle. I am also well versed in Java and C#, and have graphic design experience. For the full run down of my capabilities, see my CV.

I am currently working as a developer at Alphero, a New Zealand company delivering exciting solutions for a variety of equally exciting clients.

Looks like a sudden IPB upgrade has broken a big part of a client's website (password reset!). Clap, clap, Invision Power Board!
