About Me

I was born and raised in a beach town near Los Angeles, CA. I got my B.S. in Information Systems from Brigham Young University of Hawaii. I have worked for 5 years in the web development industry and found what I love most is creating beautiful, functional sites for others to enjoy. The projects I have the most fun with are the ones I have worked on from the design phase to the completed project. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than seeing my work enjoyed by others. I am currently going to school to get a degree in Web Design. I believe that there is always something more to learn and I enjoy learning as much as possible.
