Hello, I'm a designer and developer in the Washington, DC area. Currently, I'm a Design Manager at Capital One. Ever since I built my first GeoCities website in 2002 I've been hooked on making things for the web.
I used to blog about learning how to bake. Sometimes I make t-shirts about great mythical beasts.
