I’m a web developer and designer from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I’ve been building web applications with Django for over three years. I have a particular fondness for web app user-interface design and product development.

I’m a firm believer in the practical benefits of web standards, but I don’t get too involved in the abstract or philosophical discussion surrounding them. I simply keep up with the latest best practices and stick to them as much as possible. In many ways, I think the web standards crusade has stifled the creativity that makes Web truly engaging.

I’m currently not actively seeking freelance work at the moment, but if you’ve got an interesting project or idea I’m always open to listening!
