Worked on a variety of websites in different capacities (lead developer / support). Tech stack varied from open source to enterprise level depending on client requirements and business objectives.

Photography - Having worked in the graphic design industry for so long, OCD image manipulation using Photoshop, became much of a pastime {insert sarcasm} . Eventually I decided that I should be creating photography rather than editing it. So thanks to the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, I immediately returned the money to the public and bought my first DSL Camera, the Nikon D40.
Illustration - My true hobby has always been illustration. In college I sold my first work of art "The Ghetto of Athens" to a philosophy professor at Emory University. It was that masterpiece that ultimately set me on my path to being a Graphic Designer, Art Director, and now a Web Developer.
