About me

Hello

My name is Aaron Buckthought. I am 25 years old and live in the beautiful capital of New Zealand, Wellington.

I have a Bachelor of Computing Systems and enjoying learning the 'ins and outs' of new programming languages. My focus is to provide a great user experience across all platforms.

I have been creating websites since I was very young and usually work with PHP and MySQL. I am completely self taught in HTML, CSS, JavaScript and PHP.

You can see some of my work in the portfolio below.

I am developing my knowledge of mobile development. New apps will be appearing here soon.

I started creating websites under the name JumpGate Web Design.

I setup sites for numerous companies around the Bay of Plenty region including Zealandier Tours, Kreative Art FX, Airlie Lodge and personal websites for members of Professionals Real Estate.

Recent Work

Core CMS System

I developed this CMS system for use in websites I had created where the client wanted to update the information on pages themselves.

I used PHP, MySQL and a whole lot of jQuery so everything happened dynamically. Each area on the CMS system was created so that I could add the 'module' on their site and the system would pick it up and add it into all menus and allow access.
JumpGate Web Design

JumpGate Web Design was the name I have been using while creating websites.

I originally setup sites for numerous companies around the Bay of Plenty region including Zealandier Tours, Kreative Art FX, personal websites for members of Professionals Real Estate and Airlie Lodge.
