Eoin Griffin

Hi, I’m Eoin (Irish name, sounds like ‘Owen’. Don’t worry if you can’t pronounce it).
I’m multimedia/web-developer/designer from Ireland, currently living in Vancouver, British Columbia.

I’m a qualified nerd with a BA in Multimedia obtained after 4 years studying in Ireland and Germany. Right now, I’m self-employed as a freelancer, but that could change at any moment. If you’d like to get in touch with me, send me an email or use the contact form.
