FULL BIO
Graduated from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln 1996. Moved to Phoenix where I started working as a freelancer while developing a Multi Media curriculum for Career Education Corporation. After developing the curriculum I was then offered the opportunity to teach many of the classes I created for the school. In late 1998 I decided to stop working with print altogether and focus solely on web design and development. From there I have taken classes and self-taught many of the languages I know and use. I have taught, designed, developed and managed web sites of all shapes and sizes, its my passion, its what I enjoy.
