One of the first things that comes to mind to describe myself is, “jack of all trades, master of none.” I have a wide range of skills and assets that are most likely too numerous to mention. Generally, though, I tend to focus on art and technology.

My two loves are fusions of art and technology: web development and photography. In addition to graphic and user experience design of web development, I enjoy the technical nitty gritty of HTML, CSS, coding, server deployment and version control. Photography brings to my life the hardware of camera bodies and lenses, technique of balancing light, shutter and aperture and, of course, the beautiful artwork.

My educational background is the professional jack of all trades: architecture. I hold both a degree in architecture and minors in visual arts and history of art and architecture.

I have been working with Drupal as my main content management system since the beginning of 2005 after dabbling with it for a year and a half prior. Through my work with Public Display, I have been doing Drupal consulting work for RI Nexus, Harvard Science with the Harvard News Office, and not-yet-live news and event distribution sites for Brown University.
