i heart designing web sites
I'll admit it...I love web design. If I weren't already betrothed (and if it weren't illegal in all 50 states) I'd marry it. I like to think that my love for it comes across in everything that I produce. I'm never grumpy or tired when I do this, and that translates to tireless dedication to the work. From our first discussions to the release of your dream web site (and beyond), I'll be there holding your hand (but not literally...that'd be creepy). In short, I love what I do, and I hope my enthusiasm rubs off on you.
i am a man possessed by many...talents
I love web design, but I do so much more. I also do database design and development. The backbone of any dynamic web site is a database - whether it's for a blog, message board or self-service maintenance of your content database integration is essential. I have lots of experience in database admin and programming, primarily on SQL Server but I'll also dive into MySQL. Then I use ASP/ASP.NET to program your web pages to integrate the database interaction. So whether you need database integration for your site, or you want someone to do some database-only contract work for you, I'm your huckleberry.
design and functionality rule ...even in computers
Call me a fanboy if you like, but I am a huge Apple junkie. In my day gig, I use Windows computers, so it is a relief to me to come home and work on my Macs. The clean design and ease of use are appealing to me, as these are the cornerstones of my design and development methods and preferences. So, when we meet up to go over designs or discuss the progress of your site, don't be surprised to have everything presented to you on my iPad.
my web design toolbox overfloweth
When it comes to designing and developing your site, I use an array of tools to write site's code, design and create graphics, design and develop databases...you name it. I try not to limit myself to products from one company...there are so many good tools available that I am able to use to bring concepts into reality. As an independant web designer, I try to use inexpensive (or free) open source products whenever possible, but I also have a soft spot for Adobe Fireworks and Photoshop. All of this is put to work for you.
