Web Designer Samuel Berson
I am an up and coming web designer with a background in creative advertising, specifically copywriting. I have a
background in the fine arts and photography, which helps me see things differently. I strive to round myself out
as someone who doesn’t want to just “get paid to think.” I love to learn anything I can about everything I can so
that my work is always improving. I am proficient with The Adobe Master Suite through CS6 on both Mac and PC
platforms. I specialize in front-end coding languages HTML5 and CSS3, with a knowledge of JavaScript, JQuery,
PHP, Joomla! and Expression Engine CMS.
