About Me
This is who I am
Ever since I was a cartoon-obsessed child, I've been creating websites. At 8 years old, I knew it was what I wanted to do when I grew up. At 15, I began marketing my services locally and did freelance work for local business.
I'm now 22 and have been working professionally with a creative web design & development agency for 4 years.
Creating modern, standards-driven websites that provide a client with tangible results keeps me going.
Skillset
This is what I do
- Valid (x)HTML5, CSS3, or older

- Modern, trendsetting website design
- Wireframing and UI / UX Design

As an avid reader of Zeldman and Meyers I enjoy promoting web standards in as many ways as I can.
