I eat, breath and sleep web culture and the arts and have a very intimate knowledge of design, front-end coding, social media, user interface design, digital media and trends. I rely on my creative intuitive sense to create out of the ordinary designs.
What distinguishes me from many other designers and developers is my penchant to produce interactive media for the web that's in synch with the very latest design, coding and social media trends. Have a startup idea that needs to impress investors with a clean, pixel perfect and robustly coded interface? Send your ideas my way and let's talk!
I design web sites with a focus on Web 2.0 look and functionality, am a design perfectionist and a CSS ninja!
1My design skills include graphic design, illustration, typography, information architecture and branding.
2Acquired coding skills range from front-end coding (HTML, CSS, jQuery and JavaScript), cross-platform compatibility, and multiple browser functionality.
3Dominating my networking skills is social media cultivation with Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, blogs like Tumblr, social cataloging with Pinterest, high Google positioning (SEO) and e-commerce development.
4My web projects frequently require high quality digital photography and print, and I've done quite a bit of high-end fashion photography.
