About Me
I am a Sacramento freelance website designer with clients all over
California and the United States. I have been designing websites since
1998 and am passionate about creating just the right look for each
website I create. In the 1990s hand coding in HTML was the only way to
design websites, so that's how I started eventually advancing to
Dreamweaver, FrontPage and Flash. I studied web design and
graphics at Macromedia University and have also taken many on-line
classes in topics such as Dreamweaver, Flash, Photoshop, Photo Impact,
Front Page, HTML, CSS, Java script, color coordination and website
layout. I am a graduate of Hickock Technical Institute in
Cleveland, Ohio with an Associate Degree in Mechanical Design and
Drafting.
My former career was in Mechanical Drafting and Design. From 1991
to 2003 I was the owner and Director of Precision Technical Institute in
Sacramento, CA, where we taught AutoCAD drafting and design. I sold the
school in November, 2003 to pursue web design as a full time career.
As the owner of a private vocational school, I found it necessary to
learn to be very proficient in MS Office, particularly Word and Excel.
I also have become proficient in the creation of vector graphics for
logos and print artwork using Adobe Illustrator.
The Internet is continuously changing and I am always taking new classes, buying the latest software and reading up on the latest Search Engine Optimization techniques. Every day I learn something new so I can offer you the best possible service. The good news is that I love to learn new things. It keeps my job interesting!
I am looking forward to creating the perfect website to suit your needs.
I will work closely with you to ensure that your website not only meets,
but exceeds, your expectations. I will do this at a price that is
a fraction of what you would expect to pay for a professional website!
I have built a solid reputation on my business practices. Check out my Portfolio and Testimonial pages. I add helpful articles to my resources section and in my Newsletter so check back from time to time.
Boasting a national clientele that ranges from building contractors,
Hollywood Producers, book publishers, galleries, artists, musicians,
restaurants, boutiques, real estate agents and companies, and so on and
so forth – the list goes on endlessly – I understand design from the
inside out and know when to be simple and when to open the floodgates.
Most importantly, I do all of the above with top-of-the line programming
and technology. I utilize many programs to create Flash, JavaScript,
CSS, XHTML, DHTML and XML – just to name a few. Place your business
in my hands – I will nourish it with quality design, equipped to the T,
with what your business needs to grow out there on the web – a world I
will help you conquer.
