Creating websites with web standards methodologies.
I create strategy and design solutions for the web by developing forward-thinking solutions done properly. Leveraging extensive experience with HTML, xHTML, CSS and DOM scripting to ensure essentially inherent solutions for the hypothetical new web 2.0. As a strong web standards advocate I believe that valid and extensible solutions are essential to success.
I also enjoy being a new Dad, fly fishing near by rivers and reservoirs, creating art and being with friends and family.
