Skills
I focus on the details.
In everything I do, my goal is to create the best user experience possible. To do this, my attention to detail spans from the content on the page, to the smallest pixel in the design and to the semantics of the markup.
I stay ahead.
I keep up–to–date with new technologies like HTML5 and CSS3 and bleeding-edge concepts like Responsive Web Design. But I also know that not every browser can handle these new technologies. As a result, I code with progressive enhancement and graceful degradation in mind.
My Web workflow
I design with Photoshop.
Code with HTML5, CSS3 and jQuery.
And bring it all together with Espresso.
My Print workflow
I design with Photoshop and illustrator.
And bring it all together with inDesign.
