I got into making websites in high school, forgot about it for a while, then picked it back up after college. Coding has always fulfilled what I believe to be a near-primal impulse to build stuff. Over the past 5 years I’ve designed a developed dozens of websites, large and small, for non-profits and small businesses. I work predominantly with WordPress, due to it’s flexibility, ease-of-use and cost (zero dollars).
I’ve also made a number of attempts at translating my graphic tastes and aesthetic into code.
