About: things you should know1 and things you might not care2.

I am a web designer who lives in NW DC. I specialize in Standard HTML, CSS and information architecture. At my most recent job at Encore Marketing, I focused on consumer behavior, conversion rate and user experience. To expand my horizon, I attend conferences, participate in local web meetup groups and work on a variety of freelance projects. Currently, I am completing a degree at the Center of Imaging Digital Arts at Boston University for web development — just to kick it up a notch. Lately, I am learning Codeigniter on my free time.
This site is greatly influenced by the likes of Jason Santa Maria, David DeSandro and a brief message, who I consider pioneers of online art direction.
Let me know what you think about this site: love it, hate it, wanna make fun of it. Hit me up.
