I have some experience in web design, graphic design and layout, and previous experience in computer science. I have a lifelong love of art, computation, and creative expression. Most of my experience is in the design and implementation of system architecture, and back end programming for web based companies. The ISP I worked for introduced DSL to the Washington Metropolitan area, and was sold to Verio. I worked at Calypso, an automated homepage software company which was purchased by AOL. In these and other companies I have achieved my and my employer’s aims helping to deliver a solid product first to market. During the mid/late 2000s I tried transitioning into art and design. At this point, it has been some time since I have worked.
