Narrative

I'm a web developer located in north Denver with my wife and new daughter. I've had the privilege of running a small, focused development shop since 2006 with some of the sharpest minds in the metro-area. Previously I had worked as a contractor for several local agencies, but after several years of working on projects that were "assigned" to me, I really wanted the freedom to target projects I thought were interesting.

I like to think I'm equally adept at client-relations and code, and most of my past clients would agree. My clients put dinner on my table, and I tend to treat them with great respect and gratitude.

I love open-source and I especially love Drupal. I'm a fan of technology in general and would characterize myself as a geek, though one with above-average social skills. If you're interested in working with a fun, sharp, honest and sometimes edgy character (and you'd characterize yourself as something similar), we might be a good match.
