About

I'm a graphic designer and front end web developer presently attending The State University of New York at New Paltz, pursuing a BFA in Graphic Design. I'm based in Brooklyn, NY

Design Philosophy

Steward Brand once said, 'information wants to be free', and I agree. Not necessarily in the way that it is interpreted now with copyright, but in that information wants to be made available in whatever means I try to access it.

What I hate most is when I come across websites that can't be accessed on my phone, or services that aren't available on a particular platform or something like that. Dont you think that you should be able to access that data anywhere you'd like, anyhow you'd like? I do, and I design solutions that allow me to do just that.

I am a technologist, and quite often an early adaptor. I want to help design a web that will be available for everyone using anything, and I hope to find partners that allow me to do just that.

Platforms and Skills

I'm skilled in graphic design, web design, and front end web development. I'm well versed in HTML, CSS, Javascript, building sites to run on multiple device sizes and environments, well familiarized with designing for mobile devices, and have designed and developed for the Android platform, as well as mobile web. Interest in developing for Windows 8.
