I grew up in sunny and gorgeous Southern California, just north of the City of Angels. It's a beautiful and fascinating place which will forever be my true home, but a few months after my high school graduation I said goodbye to my friends and family, packed my bags, and boarded a plane for paradise. I was starting my career as the lead designer at one of Henk Rogers' companies in beautiful Honolulu.

Fast forward two years later and I have since moved on from Blue Lava. After a brief stunt trying to start a development company with a close friend of mine, i've gone lone wolf to take a break from things and run at my own pace. I have a very delicate love/hate relationship with the internet.

I'm a CSS demon who speaks fluent HTML, with a careful attention to detail and a lust for clean code. I'm spending most of my time these days playing with Python and Android. For those curious, this site is built using Django. It's without a doubt a major work in progress. Expect to see it evolve frequently during its lifetime. The site is hosted on a Debian 5.0 Lenny VPS at Linode

I am also quite familiar with WordPress, and entertain the thought that I make pretty good Themes. You can check out my flagship theme Tasty here on this site, or play with a very out-dated version of Elixir on Github

When I'm not sitting behind a Terminal or TextMate window, I'm usually out exploring this island on my tarck bike. If I'm not trackstanding like a true hipstar on my bike, I'm watching a chick flick with my wonderful girlfriend Lani.

Finding Me Elsewhere

If you're not getting your kicks here, you can find me on these sites as well.

• I write in one hundred and forty character blurbs on twitter. You should follow me.
• I enjoy music and scrobble to last.fm — Not so much anymore, it's too much of a CPU hog. But check it out nonetheless for a pretty good idea of what I like.
• I shoot stuff and toss it on flickr
• I read Hacker News daily multiple times per hour, unfortunately.
• I am on Facebook
