More About Me

Brief History

Having been at this stuff for a long time now, I attended the first Flash Forward in 2000 and I have battled Netscape 4. Through the years many things have changed and some things have stayed the same. What was for the web is now for almost everything. HTML, CSS, JavaScript to build websites, apps, IoT, digital signage, games, the list goes on…

I have used Flash for banners, games, online apps that act like HTML, hardware simulations, experiential museum installs and retail kiosks ( as Air ). HTML, CSS and JavaScript for your website, kiosk or app. Content management done in XML, JSON, ASP, PHP, Ruby, Python, JavaScript, the "Cloud".

The technology is not the determinant, the project goal and its best solution are. Today there are so many options that we can pick and choose, adapt and read the documentation as needed. Think hammer or screwdriver for that nail.
