I love writing about myself. Its what I live for. <– Sarcasm. Here goes a quick overview :

Born in Dallas and growing up in Texas you probably expect a cowboy who wrestles steer for fun, herds cattle in the morning and plays the fiddle at night. If only.

Somewhere during my developmental years someone plugged a computer in and sat me in front of it, and from then on I was hooked into the world wide web. I pride myself on striding that line between a full blow nerd and able to communicate with society, so don’t expect any late-night-by-the-glow-of-a-lava-lamp hacker fests and during my unplugged hours I am normally playing basketball, or soccer, maybe some tennis or golf thrown in and thoroughly enjoy my time in the sun.

However, thats not why your here. You are here because I have a website. So, my web experience :

I learned early on , so far back as middle school, that I enjoyed the internet and what it offered in terms of communication. I started small websites (at a time when the web was young) for my school and church and local groups. This was in the second half of the 90’s when the internet really was blowing up and it was very neat for my friends and I to be in the middle of that explosion. From that point on we tried to monetize our interest and began freelancing for friends which helped us learn alot about the world of business online.

In the past couple of years my focus has shifted into the realm of Graphic Design as I have worked as a desktop publisher and on the staff of a magazine as Assistant Art Director. I enjoy the ‘real’ nature of the printed word so designing for print has been a fun experience but in the past year I have re-dedicated myself to maintaining my proficiency on the web. As I rebuild my knowledge of the latest standards and languages I am currently fluent in HTML and CSS and with the obvious associates of XHTML and XML. I have a working understanding of PHP which allows me to have a very basic reading ability when it comes to object oriented programming. Software wise my main tools are Photoshop, but as a graphic artist I can work with the entire Adobe Suite (also includes Illustrator, InDesign and Flash). Actionscript 2.0 is a system I plan on learning in the near future.

For a full resume feel free to contact me, and for some of my work visit the portfolio section.

Thanks for reading!
