Most of my professional hours are spent trying to make online products that provide simple solutions to complex problems. I like to design stuff by hand and make it work on the web.
I'm not a unicorn. I'm a designer who codes on the front end and executes creative concepts with the back end devs. I try to make designs that look good, work properly, and ship on time.
I believe good design comes from great teams. I think being a good designer is 25% technical skill and 75% people skills. I enjoy working in a group and helping my coworkers do their best work.
I've been working in Sydney, Australia for the last three years. I love traveling and working internationally. If you need someone who enjoys doing business across multiple countries/continents/time-zones and thinks hopping in a plane tomorrow to meet a client is a feature, not a bug, I might be able to help.
If you think we'd be a good fit, you can contact me easiest at patrick@delaney.design or you can check out my Linkedin, Dribbble, or Instagram.

When I made this site, I decided it was the perfect time to learn CSS Grid. At the time of me writing this, 0ctober 2nd, 2018, CSS Grid only has partial support in IE 11.
Since I intend for this site to be an example of what I can do, and not a comprehensive commercial product, I’m ok with that sacrifice in usability, especially since signs point to IE11 eventually adopting full CSS Grid support.
So with that said, I’d recommend using a different browser, such as Microsoft Edge. If you got cursed by a witch or something and have to use IE, you can contact me at patrick@delaney.design or you can check out my
