About
I'm a web developer and entrepreneur who enjoys making things. I also tend to have an unhealthy obsession with anything web or mobile. Learn more or contact me.
Find Me Online
- I only add people I've met (in real life) to Facebook.
- I tweet about all kinds of things.
- I have a professional resume, which I should update more frequently.
- I snap photos with Instagram, and broadcast them to my Flickr account.
- I'm checking out and getting used to pinning stuff on Pinterest.
- I used to Digg somewhat, but haven't bothered since the site's decline.
- I have a Github account, which I should use more of.
