This is the personal blog of Alistair Duggin, a London based front-end developer and accessibility advocate.
I’m currently a Principal Web Developer at the BBC however this is my personal website and doesn’t represent my employer.
Before working at the BBC I studied MSc Interactive Multimedia at Middlesex University and Zoology at Nottingham University.
My last 4 projects have been lead developer roles on Weather, Olympics, Earth and the Channels redesign.
