Seeking a position utilizing both my design & web skills. Most coders can't design and most designers can't code... I bring both to the table. I am of optimal use when I am faced with daily challenges and consistently being asked to learn new tools and skills. If there is a skill you require that I have not listed, not to fret, I am up for the challenge.
