Brilliant websites for small to medium companies and contract design services to supplement your staff during those crunch times. Animation and motion graphics a specialty. Cascading Stlye Sheets (CSS) is my current passion. Talk about a brilliant thing!
Your company identity and branding are at the core of all I do. Your communication need is the springboard for my creativity. Clarity of information design and interactivty as well as of visual design are hallmarks of my work.

If your website is not yet based on CSS, having it converted it will have many benefits. It will be easier to maintain and change; even sweeping changes to the look of the entire site can be accomplished by changing only the external style sheet. You will have more sophisiicated layout options while simplifying your document structures. You will get savings in file sizes and server load. Your site will be ready to efficiently meet the future! I can help you do this.
I began designing for the Worldwide Web over ten years ago, when most internet connections were very slow by today's standards, so I am sensitive to speed and filesize issues.
With extensive experience with video and animation I am well able to handle complex time-based content in today's high-speed environment, and poised to move into emerging technologies, such as mobile web and video.
I posses a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a Graphics Communications major as well as a Certificate in Interactive Multimedia. The latter was a highly intensive program at the North Orange County Community College in Fullerton, California (yes, the O. C.!) where I was one of twenty admitted to the program out of 250 applicants. There I received additional training in design for interactivity, advanced Photoshop techniques, especially for web design, Macromedia Director and Lingo programming, and 3D animation.
I currently utilize the latest versions of state-of-the-art software and coding on a shiny new Macintosh laptop, and have a Windows laptop as well.
