I started as a client-side developer in 1998. I taught myself HTML, CSS, JS, and Flash for my first job interview. Since then I have expanded my skill set to include PHP, Java, ActionScript 2 & 3, SQL and relational database design. I have built a variety of sites ranging from web-based financial tools for Thomson Financial and Credit Suisse to beautiful, engaging sites for Garden & Gun and Nick Magazine. I love the challenge of starting a website from a blank HTML file, and refining it into a complete, functioning website. My past experiences and professional background provide a valuable knowledge base for my work. I enjoy the challenges of creative problem-solving and learning new technologies. I am equally comfortable as the sole developer on a project as I am collaborating with a team. Beyond my expertise as a developer, I contribute to a team my warm personality, strong work ethic, and excellent communication skills. I enjoy my work most when it allows me to grow as a developer, learn new technologies, and work on a variety of projects with talented team members.
