About Me
Beautiful interfaces that make complicated things simple have always impressed me. After working for two fantastic startups, and building my own company Ive decided to move on to something that has always interested me web design. I recently moved to Chicago to learn how to design and develop websites at The Starter League. The program ends in December, and Im looking for a company where I can continue to sharpen my design skills. If you think that I might be a good fit, Id love to talk.
