I began working with computers and the such during high school. Before getting into web design I worked as a computer/telecom technician. I quickly realized that I preferred the software and internet side of the technology and that is what brought me into the freelance web design field. I have excellent skills in using Photoshop, Fireworks, and Illustrator. I do have some experience with InDesign. I am fully versed in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP as well as many other coding languages. When I work on a client's site, Unless asked to, I never use existing themes as many other design companies do. All of my sites are designed and coded with the clients specific needs in mind. Any site I design can easily have a CMS (Content Managing System, of which WordPress is my favorite!) that will allow you to easily make changes and update the site yourself. I also create custom graphics or logos to be used on any type of media, they can be my original work or based on existing work that you already have. Thanks for taking a look at my profile and I look forward to working with you!
