Work Stuff

I am the web guy at Coastside.net in Half Moon Bay, CA.  We're a small internet company providing internet service, web design, and web hosting.

Many of my clients are graphic designers who create website concepts for their clients, and then I build their website to match the design. The goal is 100% W3C compliance (which means there are no errors in my code), pure CSS and table-free HTML.  And, I always build sites that are cross-browser compatible for all current browsers.

Lately I have been busy building websites that use Content Management Systems (CMS) such as Joomla and Wordpress.  These platforms are great solutions for people who want to manage their own sites without having to learn a bunch of techie code skills.

I also design websites, including designing and building custom Joomla templates, so my clients can have a unique website design and still manage it themselves -- no need for a cookie-cutter commercial template.

Finally, I also do back-end PHP and MySQL integrations and customizations.

Life Stuff

When I'm not at my desk, I get out as often as I can to work on my photography skills, or I'm at home working on my solo guitar music.
