Bio

I am a freelance web developer living in Victoria BC, currently employed as an Open Source Developer with northStudo Inc and Lead WordPress Developer with WordPress Pro, a division of northStudio.

I have been in Web Development for 4 years. At first I started out, like many, with programs like DreamWeaver and FrontPage, but it wasn't long before I was hand coding my html sites. It wasn't until someone told me that tables were for losers that I decided to go to school and learn the real deal :)

After graduating with an Open Source Development Diploma consisting of a Certificate in Web Design and a Certificate in Open Source Development and E-Commerce, I did an Internship with northStudio and eventually became a full time employee.

Alas, I had finally mastered CSS and fell in love with Drupal - the most powerful and adaptable Content Management System that I know of. I have grown leaps and bounds in my development career and am thrilled to call this my job.

I am steadily building my portfolio with websites, CMS development, programming and some design work ranging from print materials to web design. I love hand coding in xhtml css and php. I have extensive training with the Adobe suite; I am an expert with Photoshop, Fireworks, and Dreamweaver. I am also knowledgeable in Flash and Illustrator.
