Born, raised, and currently residing in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am a web design and development lifer: I bought a first-gen iPod with my first Cafepress earnings (before I even had my first retail job), my high school digital media teacher would come to me for help, and I've been in e-commerce since it was mailing cash in envelopes. My drive to continuously learn (and my penchant for obsessing over my passions) has led me to take on all facets of design, development and management within marketing and e-commerce. I love developing and managing websites. I can dive into a new platform or language and learn it quickly. My broad range of experience allows me to work cross-functionally, bringing knowledge and clarity to all sides. With my background in production design and email marketing, I know the importance of pixel-perfect assets, and the necessity of proper specs. As a developer, I know the importance of covering and clarifying all scenarios and user flows. And as a Web Manager, I know the importance of everyone on the team! I truly enjoy problem solving and welcome any challenge and opportunity to learn.
Outside of work, I have the unfortunate hobby of collecting hobbies.

There's nothing like exploring a new place with a camera in hand, especially if it's empty, and the sun is going down. After getting started with film SLRs, I got the first Canon Digital Rebel and took it everywhere. I prefer shooting quiet moments and empty landscapes, unless its at a concert, but even then I look for more reflective moments.
