I’m a professional web developer at Artifex Business Identity Development in Tacoma, Washington. My daily programming tasks primarily involve using PHP5, MySQL, design patterns, accessibility techniques, and sprinkles of ASP, CSS, and JavaScript. For more about what I do or claim to be capable of, take a look at my resume.
I’m enrolled at the University of Washington, Tacoma, where I’m earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Computing and Software Systems. I already have two Associate of Technical Arts degrees from Olympic College in Computer Information Systems and Web Development.
When I have the time, I pretend to run my own business, Sanctus Studios. Yes, I’m aware that all I have is stupid Web 1.0 “coming soon” page, but you fail to remember that I said, “When I have the time”, at the beginning of this paragraph.
I’ve been married to my wonderful wife, Jackie, since July 22, 2007. Every day keeps getting better.
The back-end is built on top of the Zend Framework. I used a few other libraries in this site just to save me some time from writing boring code that some other poor college student already did. I added HTMLPurifier to filter any dirty XHTML from user input. SmartyPants and Markdown are what make the content formatting look “pretty”.
