Madison, WI Web Design & Development

Since 2000, I've produced visually pleasing database-driven websites and web-based applications driven by PHP and MySQL, using standards-compliant XHTML/CSS and Javascript. Solutions consist of both Custom and Open Source Content Management Systems (CMSs) like WordPress, Drupal, osCommerce, Magento and many more. Additionally, I've created countless print pieces - anything from CD album art to business cards, flyers, envelopes, postcards, and much more.
