"I make things work"
My passion for web development has grown from a hobby into a profession. Over the past 10 years I have been involved with developing and maintaining dozens of web sites for a variety of organizations and businesses.
I received my degree in Computer Information Systems from UFV in 2005, and during this time picked up many skills from managing servers, creating databases, networking, to developing interactive websites. I have learned various programming and scripting languages (PHP, Ruby on Rails, Perl, bash, MySQL, JavaScript, XHTML to name a few I'm the most familiar with). I've also picked up the knowledge required to manage and maintain web and database servers and am most comfortable when managing a server through the Linux command line.

"I make things look good"
I found a passion in web design and implementation from Dan's work in the field. I always enjoyed using technology to communicate and facilitate my requirements -- from creating powerpoints and videos for various university projects to classroom seating arrangements when I was in my Education program. However, I did not know my interest in technology would turn into a career.
I am currently one course away from completing my Web Technologies Associate Certificate from BCIT. I also have two bachelor degrees in Art and Education which I put to use in organization, communication and design.
This field is always changing and I love that it is a continuous learning process. I enjoy the balance between the creative and technical sides that designing and implementing websites gives me. I have a passion for designing creative, visually pleasing sites that are usable and intuitive for the end user. I also love a challenge so feel free to drop me a line with your latest project or idea.
