LAMP stack enthusiast

I live in Findlay, Ohio which has a population of around 37,000. It's a small town, but definitely not a …

Linux

There is no better operating system. OS X is fine, but power users must follow the Penguin.

PHP

It is clean, logical, and functional. Awesome in a browser or from the command line.

My Favs

Web Development

The web is where it's at. Forget static applications on the desktop; browser-based apps are taking over.

Pixelbot

A cool web development studio I started with a talented designer to push the limits of web technology.

Who Am I...

I am a web developer living in Findlay, Ohio. I think in code. And I believe in functionality and efficiency.

Programming has been in my blood since I touched my first computer: the TRS-80.

I soon learned to write BASIC programs. In high school they offered Pascal, but that didn't take. Not having the patience to wait for school to catch up with technology, I began to teach myself. BASICA led into VisualBasic.NET, then C/C++. Briefly, I dabbled in Java.

And then the internet was born. I soon dove into HTML, Javascript, and PHP. I haven't looked back since.

I fully believe in the power and purpose of web applications. To prove it, I have partnered with a talented designer to form a cool little web development studio called Pixelbot.

We desparately want to bring vision and talent to the masses through the web browser. Keep tabs on our progress on Facebook and Twitter.

Web Applications

While web design is more popular for it's shiny facade, the real power is in web applications. Obviously, I say this because I'm a web developer/programmer and not a web designer. But also because I love a functional, dynamic website far better than static web-candy.

Browser-based Games

My real programming passion lies in game development. To be able to play a game simply by opening a browser, whether it's on your home computer, smartphone, or your laptop in a coffee shop (cliche, yuck). Nothing to download, nothing to install - just pure fun over a network connection. I think games are in our future at Pixelbot.

A final thought

This site is probably NOT compatible with Internet Explorer because it doesn't support modern features. If it's not forced upon you by your outdated IT department and you want to view awesome styling and 3D effects here, upgrade your browser to Chrome or Firefox.
