1. is a web designer living in Portland, OR, USA.

2. Primarily, he’s the Webmaster for the Pacific Northwest College of Art, designing and coding the school’s main site and sub-sites, like the fine art library. He also designs Homeroom, a unique web-based social application that keeps the college community connected.

3. Whenever possible, he works with artists, businesses and city governments to translate their vision into clean, organized code.

4. He's also been a food writer for two alternative newsweeklies in the American West, The Colorado Springs Independent and Willamette Week, in Portland. Delicious and fun is the job but hard (so hard) on the double chin.

5. Please note he runs a sketchpad site called Melanzine, where occasionally something stirs. For those inclined toward digging deeper, he has left a trail of photos, links and scraps strewn about the Internet so that, down the line, he might easily find his way back.
