I am made up of carbon atoms which originated from a giant star before the earth was born, and also of amino acids that likely found their way here in a meteor and eventually gave rise to life on earth. Billions of years later Homo sapiens evolved with enough brain power to figure all that stuff out.

Ok, that is the long version. As far as the shorter, present story goes I currently work on a freelance basis doing web development. I have been working in creative and advertising for the past 12 years. Find out more about my skills and experience, and view my portfolio in the work section.

I received a BA in anthropology from Umass in 1992 choosing this topic for study after finding the biology of human evolution fascinating. It wasn't the most practical major in terms of finding a job, but it was rewarding in terms of learning and knowledge. I have always had an artistic side and that was what led me down the path that resulted in my current profession.

I have many interests outside of work. Actually, the problem is that I have too many. There are so many things that I enjoy pursuing that finding ample time to devote to each can be a real challenge. You can find out all about these activities in the interests section.
