 about me

  • I love setting up websites
  • I am first and foremost a graphics designer, in my dark past I was a broadsheet newspaper typesetter
  • I was trained to think in pictures, and have always tried my best to get everything perfect
  • I get involved in projects that further OSS (Open Source Software) community involvement
        & interaction like Openhatch
  • I also love maintaining websites (system administration stuff) - firewalls, .htaccess rules, and installing VPS's.
  • I like to extend myself in my weak areas and I'm currently developing my programming skills in PHP and Python  
GOALS - this year
  • Expand my skills in PHP and Python, put a couple of frameworks in these under my belt.
        eg. Zend / Codeignitor (PHP) - Django & PyGTK (Python)
GOALS - next year
  • Be involved in mentoring someone else to not only further my own perspective but
        also to give back to web development community that has helped me
  • Increase my confidence with different programming languages by adding another language to my toolset
        - Probably Ruby on Rails or Java

For now that's what my heart desires, I will probably revise & reconsider these during the 3 years.
If you'd like to employ me in a project and that fits into my current goals, go ahead, get in touch!
