About
Hi & welcome to my portfolio!
Professional
I’m a web developer currently working as the webmaster at Review Publishing, publishers of three weekly newspapers, Philadelphia Weekly, South Philly Review and Atlantic City Weekly. My role there includes managing print-to-web workflow, website maintenance, WordPress development, social media integration, site analytics and whatever other web-based initiatives arise.
I also work as a freelancer.
Design Background
I like to create user-centered websites which utilize clear typography, ample whitespace, a nice grid and simple, straightforward navigation. To do so I use a variety of tools – Photoshop & Illustrator for designing mock-ups & interfaces, Coda & BBEdit to code sites. I have additional experience in UI design, as well as information architecture and project management.
Personal
Aside from the web design thing, I’m an RSS junkie – from design blogs to food blogs to personal blogs. I love cooking & dining out and love living in Philly thanks to its great restaurants and places to find food. I love photography & I use a Nikon D50 and Lightroom 2. Also, I’m an unabashed Apple fan-girl.
