João Pescada


Hello!

My name's João Pescada. I'm a Senior Creative Developer in London, UK.

Currently, I'm the Lead Flash Developer at VCCP, an integrated advertising agency in London.

Until recently, I was a Flash Developer at VIEW, awarded Digital Agency of the Year in 2007, 2008 and 2009 by Clube de Criativos de Portugal.

For the last 8 years of my life, I've been working as a designer and a developer for digital media, for clients like Algarve Convention Bureau, Casinos de Angola, Datafax, Dom Pedro Hotéis, Galp Energia, Grão Vasco vinhos, Miguel Praia, Oon Solutions, Parkalgar, RE/MAX, SATA, Star Alliance, TAP, Timex, Vale do Lobo and Zippy, among others.

Occasionally, I publish some thoughts on my blog. Feel free to leave your feedback. :)

In order to give back to the developers' community what I've been taking for a lot of years, I started sharing source code at my GitHub account.

Most of the time, I'm available for freelance work. Just drop me an e-mail.
