Tech-savvy artist, designer and developer with more than twelve years experience working in the web and software development industries; a seasoned producer with the knowledge and ability to translate ideas into solutions.


Professional Bio

Climbing the ladder

Since 1997, I have been employed in the technology sector—specifically engaged in the creative aspects of software and web development. Over the course of my career, I have contributed to the production of many custom solutions, several products and a myriad of collateral assets. These items were created for a disparate array of clients representing a broad cross section of business and industry.

Although my academic focus was design and computer graphics, the majority of my professional work has entailed an ever-increasing amount of programming and development. Since my humble beginnings as a graphic designer, my experience has grown from layout artist to 3D animator, from virtual reality designer to interactive developer and now: programmer. As such, my experience is not exclusive to artistic erudition but also encompasses a diverse array of technical skills.

My areas of expertise are visual media and Internet development. I excel in the creation of custom graphics, user interface design for software and web services, as well as the development of commercial web properties. This includes the programming of server-side functionality, extensible mark-up, visual styling and the creation of custom content.

Clientele

During my career, I have worked with businesses of all sizes—from small business to Fortune 500 companies. This experience has encompassed everything from developing general marketing strategies to building collateral of all types (e.g. print, web, multimedia, broadcast) to assisting in the development of products and services. These opportunities have allowed me to learn a great deal about a variety of industries while helping clients to achieve their goals. This experience has made me more knowledgable, not only of business itself, but also about corporate needs, consumer habits, and the world in general.

Testimonials

Commitment to Quality

"If you want it done right: talk to Dan. I don't know anyone who's more expert in the 'ins and outs' of HTML and CSS, including the latest standards and how they should be applied. When you combine that expertise with his commitment to producing quality work, it's really quite something."

David Tobey, SoftSlate Commerce

Extremely Creative

"I've been fortunate to have worked with Daniel for many years. I've have been spoiled by his talents both as an artist and as a web developer. He is extremely creative, has a keen eye for asthetics, as well as being a stickler for standards. Working with him is a priviledge."

Morica Kraft, WiredHOT Media

Makes Me Look Good

"The user experience is a crucial aspect of software design. That's why I enjoy working with a pro like Dan. His experience as an end-user, as a designer, and as a programmer provides valuable insight that helps to make my software apps more professional. And that makes me look good."
