After 13 years of designing and developing Websites, I still wake up each morning excited about the day’s work. I love creating high quality sites that help both clients and their users achieve their goals.

The results are inspiring and usable Websites that have consistently exceeded my clients’ expectations.

Currently, I am a front end developer at Bonnier Corporation, one of the largest consumer publishing groups in the world.

It is a fast-paced production environment that has sharpened my skills exponentially.
