About Me

 I am a freelance Software and Infrastructure Engineer, Website and Graphics Designer based in Bude. So for those who don’t know my background, here it is

2005 – 2008

From 2005 to 2008, I had the privilege of serving as a website developer for Monkeydevil in Bude, where I honed my expertise in HTML5, PHP, JS, and CSS3. Working for this exceptional company provided me with invaluable opportunities to enhance my skills and flourish in my craft. As time progressed, I ventured into the realm of website design, expanding my repertoire even further. In 2008, I made a pivotal decision to depart from Monkeydevil and embark on a journey of further education at North Devon College, now known as Petroc College. This decision paved the way for my pursuit of knowledge and personal growth. At the college, I pursued a National Diploma in Computing and achieved a remarkable Triple Distinction, a testament to my dedication and commitment.

With my college education successfully completed, I eagerly advanced to the esteemed University of Plymouth. There, I dedicated myself to the study of Computing and ultimately graduated with First Class Honors, a remarkable achievement that earned me formal recognition from the Dean of Science and Technology for my outstanding performance.

Overall, my journey from website development at Monkeydevil to pursuing higher education has been an enriching experience, allowing me to refine my skills, broaden my horizons, and receive recognition for my accomplishments.

2011

In 2011, an invigorating decision led me back to Bude, reigniting my collaboration with Monkeydevil and propelling my professional journey to new heights. With an unwavering commitment to personal growth, I immersed myself in the world of design, illustration, and animation, both in 2D and 3D graphics. Through my dedicated efforts, I refined my skills, pushing boundaries and surpassing expectations within the company.

In 2012, as Monkeydevil gracefully transitioned into MD Web Solutions, I embraced the opportunity to assume the role of lead designer. This pivotal position allowed me to spearhead projects, creating awe-inspiring 3D visualizations and delivering comprehensive branding solutions. From crafting captivating leaflets and flyers to designing cutting-edge websites, I catered to the needs of diverse companies in and around the vibrant Bude area. The invaluable experience gained from working with both Monkeydevil and MD Web Solutions became a transformative phase, amalgamating years of expertise, honed skills, and an unwavering passion into a singular package.

Empowered by this wealth of knowledge and driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, I knew it was the perfect moment to embark on my own business venture. With unwavering determination, I launched my own company, a decision I have never once regretted. This leap of faith has allowed me to harness my full potential, cultivate my unique vision, and steer my professional journey towards boundless success.

2019

Since the inception of Dean Wronowski Design And Development, my entrepreneurial journey has been nothing short of remarkable. Over time, I have meticulously crafted and nurtured numerous online systems, surpassing even my wildest expectations in terms of the sheer number of websites I have created. While my client base has expanded, and the reach of my services has grown exponentially, I remain true to myself, delivering unwavering support and assistance to all my valued clients. This steadfast commitment is a source of immense pride for me.

I invite you to explore the impressive portfolio of projects I have undertaken since the establishment of my business. Each endeavor showcases my unwavering dedication to excellence and innovation. If you have a project in mind, I encourage you to reach out to me for a personal consultation. Together, we can bring your vision to life and achieve remarkable results.

Testimonials

Dean recently created an excellent animated logo for my website, Bude & Beyond (www.budeandbeyond.co.uk). What I never realised at the outset was how much time, effort, discussion, creativity and dedication goes into producing a logo. After an initial discussion, Dean created many versions, in different colour schemes and formats, which he also animated. He sought appropriate feedback and went the extra mile to ensure that the colours and design were absolutely spot on. I was very impressed at his determination to get it right and to re-create and adapt until both he and I were both very happy with the final result.

So, I’d say Dean’s major strength is communication. I’m not IT-focused, but I appreciate a good-looking website/logo, so it really helps that he is able to discuss ideas in a friendly and accessible way, without over-use of jargon. He explains things well, and will interpret ideas in a client-focused way. He is extremely responsive, so wait times are very short. He listens to his client and creates ideas based on what he hears/understands. He checks all along the way (wording, colours, images, positioning) and will ask: what if we try this? He is also very open to constructive comments. Therefore, he provides plenty of guided choice.

I’m rather proud to now have a Dean Wronowski animated logo already in use on my social media and ready for my website (currently undergoing a major revamp). Dean’s designs are his trademark. Fresh, colourful and lively, they always try to encompass the nature of the product he is working with.

He is a remarkable talent which Bude is fortunate to have
