About Me

I am a web developer who specializes in the use of ASP.Net and Visual Studio, and have developed several applications that are still in use today, both internal and external to the company.

I also freelance occasionally as a web designer, developer, IA specialist, and marketing strategist, and enjoy the opportunity to wear many hats and make a big impact on individuals and small businesses.

I completed an undergraduate degree in Computer Information Systems, with a concentration in Political Science. I am currently getting an MBA at Loyola University in MD, with a concentration in Management Information Systems, and should be complete with my degree in August 2010.

I enjoy blogging, on both personal topics and professional topics. I also enjoy learning about new web technologies and entrepreneurship, spending time with friends and family, reading, watching film/TV, eating sushi, indoor rock climbing and trying new things.
