I started doing web design since 2005. Since then I have been contracted by large companies like oversee.net as well as small independent companies to create websites that are relevant, generate business and garner results. I previously worked in Manhattan at the digital agency Rokkan where I did work for brands such as Google, Ford, Toyota and Kraft. I currently work for the Walt Disney Company at babble.com.
Being trained as a designer first has helped me become a hybrid of aesthetics and utility. The coupling of my design and coding skills has allowed me to understand the importance of writing SEO friendly code with a design that encourages the user to take appropriate action. I stay current with developing and emerging technologies like HTML5, CSS3 and javascript in both the traditional browser world and mobile platforms.
Outside of web development I co-founded a non profit that provides basic necessities like food, water and shelter to those in need called The Positive Change Project. We currently work with a beautiful group of AIDS orphans in South Africa.
