Company Background

I have worked in web design and programming for over 8 years. I am a programmer as well as a graphic designer. I worked in web development for seven years as part of the University's main web team working on a variety of the school's most visible sites.

At the University, I worked with Classic ASP on the "front-end" and Microsoft SQLServer on the backend. I now use open source technologies in my business, using PHP on the front-end and MySQL on the backend.

In 2005, I retired from the university and started my own web design business. I am a programmer as well as a designer. I create most of my websites from templates that I develop myself.

I use the PHP programming language along with good solid HTML and style sheets, hand coded. I create my own templates and information forms.

Many of my sites use WordPress and Joomla for which I have developed my own themes. I also work with JavaScript am comfortable with Dreamweaver.

I have a lot of experience with CSS (Cascading Stylesheets). I am very comfortable with Photoshop and use it for most of my original graphics.
