About Me

First of all, I'm sorry about the big thing on the home page that says what I do in 45px font. It is required by law for web developers and designers, so I have no choice.

I am a 26 year old web developer and designer living in Brookline, MA. I am engaged to a wonderful lady I met when I was in college at the University of Notre Dame ('07). I majored in Film & Television but spent most of my time running ND's fledgling student TV station called NDtv, and writing a daily comic strip for the Observer, both of which were insanely fun jobs.

After graduation I discovered a love for building things with code. I also discovered CodeIgniter, and since then I have dedicated most of my time to learning and making things. During this time I also made a documentary called "Pope Michael" and have been fortunate enough to have a slew of really fun side projects.

I have moved around a bit. I was born in Canada, grew up in Florida, went to school in Indiana, and live post-graduation in downtown Chicago, West Hartford, CT, Delray Beach, FL, and Brookline, MA.
