Pixel Punk is the online portfolio of Katy Bairstow, professional geek and freelance web designer/developer.

There are many benefits to working directly with a freelancer for your project, for a start there’s only me to deal with; no art directors, no project managers, no upsellers. If you have a question, or need a quick answer, you come straight through to the girl who knows. I also believe in building real working relationships, even friendships, with my clients so I hope you have a sense of humour!

I recommend the WordPress platform wherever I can. It is quick for clients to learn the backend, meaning they can be up and running, updating their new sites very quickly, even if they have no knowledge of HTML. If you can use a web browser, you can use WordPress, it really is that simple.

If you’ve got a project you’d like to talk to me about, please fill in the contact form with your details and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

You can also connect with me at the following sites:

I’m a VAT registered sole-trader and am based in Harrow, West London. For your peace of mind (and mine) I always carry £1m in professional indemnity insurance. If your project requires me to increase this, please contact me before work begins.

I’m hearing impaired and do not use the telephone for work (trust me it gets too confusing to try!) I work solely by email and Google Chat.
