About Me

I'm a graphic designer/artist/web developer located in New City, New York 25 minutes outside New York City. I majored in Illustration and Graphic Design at School of Visual Arts and subsequently began my own publishing company producing illustrated maps for the hotel and airline industry. I have recently acquired new skills as a web developer and am highly skilled with XHTML, CSS, PHP,MySQL and JavaScript. I also paint murals and portraits. In addition to my “two dimensional” skills I am a master goldsmith specializing in ancient Etruscan and Byzantine techniques. I have my own line and also create jewelry for other prominent designers. I am always learning something new. I cannot tolerate idle time.

Although originally trained as a graphic designer/illustrator, I had a need to understand and learn everything involved with web development. My newly developed programming skills have made my graphic design skills stronger by allowing me to understand the complete picture, so I can design standards-compliant websites fully aware of the internet's limitations, always exploring new techniques and trends. I strive to be highly productive with a strong attention to detail.
