Profile

Matthew Chitty is a web developer with a rare mix of technical expertise, creative vision, and competitive drive. In the multimedia industry since 1999, he has built everything from complex web platforms to full-scale social networks, often from the ground up, and led teams to deliver high-impact projects on time and on budget.

Beyond development, he brings extensive sales and management experience: guiding teams, building client relationships, and translating technical solutions into real business value. He understands both the code and the strategy behind successful ventures.

Outside the office, Matthew is a championship stock car driver, a strategic Magic: The Gathering player, and a problem-solver who thrives under pressure. He's worked in Hollywood on high-stakes creative projects. At home he's a husband and father, and in his workshop a self-described mad scientist.

skunkworx is that mad-scientist side at work: Matthew's own development process for building, testing and shipping his own apps, like MiSocial, MiPage, StoryStream, LottoSmart and CommodIQ. It isn't a company, just how he builds when the idea is his own.

I don't just build websites. I craft digital experiences that work for your goals.
