About

Me

Hi! My name is João Pescada.
I’m an Interactive Developer based in London, UK.

I was born in 1983, in Faro, Portugal.
Lived most of my life in Albufeira, then moved to Lisbon, and now London.

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 for the last 3 years or so, 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.

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 some freelance work. Just drop me an e-mail.

This blog

This blog is the stage for publishing some thoughts of mine. Posting every other week, I’ll keep sharing my experience and knowledge on web / user interaction related subjects. Hopefully I’ll get feedback and learn more from the community. That’s you, in case you’re wondering… :)
