If life gives you lemons, google "how to make lemonade."

About half-way through journalism school I had an epiphany; I enjoyed making the news look pretty more than I liked writing it. After plunging myself into the world of print design, then web design, then code-assisted web design, I finally landed on web development. As it turns out, writing code provides a canvas that both my left and right brain can paint on. Along the way I have worked at a music distribution company, a branch of the UN, an advertising agency and, since late 2008, Ham in the Fridge.

All the while I’ve found that the key to success on the web is understanding. Not only understanding the web as a medium but understanding your client’s needs, your audience and the other members of your team.

My skills include AS2, Flash & Flex development in AS3, CSS, HTML, JavaScript and XML. My interests include iPhone Development, 3D AS3 engines, audio visualization and data visualization.

Clients I have shared success with: Adult Swim, Cargill, Cartoon Network, Hoover, Hormel Foods, Kelloggs, Marvin Windows, Nickelodeon, Paramount Pictures, Payless ShoeSource, Pfizer and Syngenta.
