Hi! Nice to meet you.
I’m one of the early adopters of the Web, doing a career that didn’t exist when the first space shuttle lifted off: Web developer. From the early days of the now-defunct blink tag, I’ve been writing code, mixing colours, bending lines, framing pictures, and checking every bit to be certain everything holds up together in your eyes while keeping the system serving you from exploding under sheer pressure of awesomeness. (Nobody likes a fail whale, even if it’s cute.) I am finishing a job at a great company, Piku Media, and I am now looking for full-time employment. Lucky you!
Knowledge keywords.
The meat you’re really skimming for — if it’s mentioned here, I know how to use it and I want to work with it: HTML5, XML, CSS3, JavaScript (jQuery), PHP (Drupal, CakePHP), Ruby (Ruby on Rails), Linux (Ubuntu), Mac OS X, Photoshop, Agile (SCRUM, Kanban), human language (English, French, Japanese), beer.
Some recent works.
