Computers and technology are my main interests. I not only develop web applications, web sites and databases for work I also do it in my spare time. I am highly self motivated and start working very early in the day. I love a challenge. I am constantly learning new things. As a result I constantly tech myself new skills related to my field. I am a self teacher. I learn best from hands on experience. Definitely a self starter constantly re-inventing the wheel with new technologies and methods of working. I implement the David Allen GTD (Get things done) methods into my work and life goals. I am a productivity enthusiast. I maintain a productivity tip blog in my spare time. I also like bike riding, video games, traveling, and exotic foods. I am always willing to try new things, exploring obscure methods for application in my day to day tasks.
FIELD WORK
Over the course of 3 years I have worked closely with print professionals. In that time I have learned many new skills related to the print and web design industries. I have maintained 4 websites including my own. I also develop websites as a freelance web designer in my spare time. The primary focus of my design work has been in ecommerce and database driven websites.
