As a life long lover of art and design, initially focused on fine art, but later morphed into an interest in industrial design. Professionally I've applied this love of aesthetics combined with technical function to my design and development work. Today I enjoy being the hybrid web/UX designer/developer that I am and being the liaison between practices. Ideally, this is where I'd like to be—a senior or managerial hands-on designer/developer bringing design, UI, and dev teams together. I've been a freelancer or contractor half of my professional career and therefore understand budgets, restrictions, client satisfaction, and client interaction. I have a pleasant, professional appearance and the ability to sit in front of a client and represent my employer admirably.
