Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor
I discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.
Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.

Transcript
Okay, my friends, that is going to be the end of this one. We've covered a lot in our time together. Mainly focusing on Responsive Web Design.
Just a recap, Responsive Web Design is an umbrella term that covers a few different things we do when we're building a website. Main ones are Media Queries, where we get them to trigger at different sizes of browsers. Within those Media Queries, we can do some fun stuff with things like the Column Widths, to adjust for different sizes, and change things like the font sizes and positioning.
Also responsive was our images, remember, we made them a width of 100% for the images. that is Responsive Images. We did Responsive Background Images where we did our background image plus this background size cover.
So you can see, when it comes to Responsive Web Design a lot of the work is done in our CSS, and our HTMLs kept nice and clean. There's very little we've actually added to it, but lot of functionality has been done using our CSS.
All right, see you later, haere rā, have a great day.
