I have over fifteen years of electronic design experience stemming from the early days of the Web, to current technologies designing interfaces for HTML5/CSS3 content with a focus on mobile games. I have made numerous contributions to my past organizations as well as assisted in leading the artistic direction of many of their titles. With my strong design skills I can easily and quickly transition into any new role. Don't let the gaming background mislead you. Design is design no matter the industry.
What I want is the excitement of knowing that every pixel I place is important, that it is part of a bigger picture that is brings enjoyment or information to millions of people. I want to know that the hours I spend in working, are spent passionately in the pursuit of something amazing. I want to be part of a team who cares about delivering something fantastic and are delivering something they are proud of.
