My name is Brian Durney. I currently work for Webtrade, one of Ireland's leading web design and web development companies. I've over ten years experience working with web technologies ranging from the design world right up to the data centre floor where our websites are powered from, a pretty unique view of the online world.

I have worked extensively within the web hosting industry as both a systems administrator and web designer with roles in companies such as Hosting365 and Digiweb.

I've a degree in Computer Science and and a Masters in Digital Media Technologies. I've worked in web development companies, graphic design studios, web hosting companies and broadband companies. I'm not a big fan of kicking it back in the evening, I like to keep busy. As a result I've been doing freelance web design work for as long as I can remember.

As a web and user experience designer I've experience in:

- User Interface Design
- Hand coding valid XHTML and CSS
- Working with server side technology like PHP

- Using all of the Adobe Creative Suite

As a former systems administrator for two of Ireland's leading web hosting companies, I've experience in:

- Managing IIS6 and IIS7 powered websites
- Managing Windows Server 2003 and 2008 systems

- Setting up LAMP environments
- Managing virtualisation tecnologies like Microsoft HyperV

And, in my spare time I spend an unholy amount of money on a respectable vinyl collection and try to keep up with my classmates in White Crane Kung Fu.
