I'm a web developer, designer and creative coder working in NYC. My focus has lately revolved around web front end, mobile development, mobile first and responsive web design principles. But I also Instagram my cats every five minutes and drink way too much Cab Franc. Contact me or read on for more...

| Senior front end developer |
Jan 15, 2011 - present |
Front end development at Lot18.com includes extensive JavaScript development, CSS, and HTML. I built the current front end following responsive web design principles. Using the same code base, the site adapts to a wide range of devices... from widescreen TVs to smart phones. You can read more about Lot18's responsive design on the Lot18 blog and on The Next Web in an article titled "The Future of Web Design."
I work closely with both the design and development groups to wireframe and prototype new features. Almost all my JavaScript development involves hooking up to the back end via AJAX and JSON. I also designed and built the current mobile web site via the responsive web design approach. The mobile site incorporates CSS3 and HTML5 capabilities like placeholder text and geo-location.

| Creative Director |
Nov 2001 - May 2008 |
Serious created integrated marketing campaigns for a wide range of clients in the direct marketing, gift card, sports, entertainment, and pharmaceutical industries using a patented CD and DVD media. During my time at Serious, I directed the design and development of over 400 unique CD and DVD titles.
As Creative Director, I managed a creative staff of 25 full-time designers, illustrators, programmers, web developers, video editors and DVD authors. I also worked with the CEO and SVP of Sales to engage clients and match the company's capabilities with their needs. I also played an important role in executive level presentations and directly supported efforts to win new business and maintain productive relationships with the company's partners. Once business was won, I initiated the art, editorial and technical direction for each project.
While at Serious, I also led the development of technologies and software that were key to the products and their applications. As Creative Director, I managed the continued development of these technologies and their role in the company's patent strategy.
