Traversing Mountains of Code

About
Me

Graphic designer by day, web developer by evening, guitar enthusiast by night. That's me in a virtual nutshell. Beginning my career as a graphic designer, now with 10 years of experience, I've learned to really appreciate the captivation an aesthic design can deliver. Pictures really are worth a thousand words and the ability to share them with the world instantaneously is truly amazing. I believe graphic design and web development are particulary good skillsets to combine in order to deliver something of lasting value.


Currently, I am building upon my web development knowledge to achieve a more comprehensive understanding for both front-end and back-end development. My main focus will be centered around all things javaScript, as that is where strong user interactivity and be deployed. I'm ultimately heading torward a strong fullstack skillset with a strong background in graphic design, allowing for "big-picture" creativity with the skills to put it on the web.
