I love coding! I find myself tuning everything else out around me and losing track of time until I finish my coding project. To me, programming is an art form because there are so many creative ways to approach a problem and each programmer has his or her own unique style.
To the left, you will see a few websites that I had a large part in the development and programming processes. I consider web development to be a relaxing and creative programming outlet; it is fun to be handed a design file and make it come to life in a web browser. I am detail oriented, so I honestly enjoy spending time tweaking a website’s style-sheet to perfection. I have created dynamic, content-managed websites so clients can easily make updates without knowing any code. I have used several different flavors of backend code for websites, including Python with Django, PHP with Smarty templates, and Javascript with jQuery.
Outside of web development, I enjoy making scripts to make life easier (such as crawlers to collect data). I am experienced with using object-oriented languages like C++ and Java, but my favorite languages are Python and Perl.
