Design and photography is my passion, it is what I enjoy doing most. In design, I specialize in web design, though I have also done logo and print design as well. I am fairly new to photography but am quickly learning that I do have a bit of an eye for it.

I started to get into design back in Middle School, when I created my first webpage using Microsoft FrontPage. I only started to truly get into web design once I took a Website Design class in High School during my sophomore year. From here I quickly learned HTML along with the wonders of Adobe Photoshop. I self taught myself, after that class, CSS and a bit of PHP along with improving my design skills with Photoshop.

After graduating High School I started my own web template site where I sold templates for an online arcade script called phpArcadeScript. The site became one of the top template sites for the script where I had sold several dozen copies of various templates.

Once I spent a couple years with this I decided that I wanted to concentrate more on the design than the coding. This led me to shut down my template site, as the support for them kept me away from designing. I started work at an office supply company called Complete Office while trying to improve my design skills on my own. A year later I started to attend The Art Institute of Pittsburgh where I took online classes in Digital Design, providing me with an official knowledge of design.

About a year ago I began my newest hobby, photography. I started out with a simple point-and-shoot digital camera and have since moved up to a bit more feature-packed point-and-shoot, the Canon Powershot S5-IS. I hope to eventually move from there onto a full-fledged DSLR that will help take my photography to the next level.

At this time I am still finishing classes in Digital Design. I have also changed positions at Complete Office where I now manage the web site and online shopping site. This job also includes, at times, the designing of flyers and posters for the company.

After I am done with the design classes I hope to land a job that centers more around design, so if you are part of a company looking for someone, feel free to contact me.
