About

I’m Paul Godney, a senior UI/UX designer and software developer with over 25 years of experience turning complex briefs into clear, accessible digital products. I combine strong visual design with hands-on front-end and WordPress development, taking projects from discovery and prototyping through implementation, testing, and launch.

I also build bespoke tools and practical AI-enabled workflows where they improve the user experience and day-to-day delivery. Whether working directly with stakeholders or alongside agency teams, I focus on structured CMS builds, reusable design systems, performance optimisation, technical SEO, and smooth content migration so solutions are easy to maintain and evolve.
