Hello from Preston
I'm Alina: lead developer, digital designer and chief capybara wrangler, based in Preston. Computer Science degree from Lancaster University, four years of shipping real things for real businesses, and a very low tolerance for websites that quietly do nothing all year.
So I do the opposite: sharp thinking, bold design and marketing that pulls its weight, explained in plain English and delivered when I said it would be.

Lead Developer & Digital Designer
Designs it, builds it, then explains it in words that don't need a glossary. Happiest with a fresh Figma file, an empty terminal and a coffee that has gone cold in a very productive way.

Non-negotiables
Week one to launch day
Four steps, no mystery, no radio silence. You always know what is happening, what I need from you and when the next thing lands.
A relaxed call about your goals, your customers and your budget. No pitch deck, promise.
Research, competitor snooping and a look at what your numbers are already telling you.
Design and build in the open, with check-ins so nothing lands as a surprise.
Launch, measure, improve. The bit most agencies quietly skip.
Kev checks every screen before it reaches you. It is why nothing ships half finished.

“Alina took a very messy brief and gave us a brand we're genuinely proud of. Bold work, zero faff, and she explained every decision without making us feel daft.”
