Skills
Web Development
Throughout the years, I have learned a lot about Web Development. The right ways, the wrong ways, and the old ways. What started out as just a desire to design, turned into a need to code, then program. I now possess expert knowledge of XHTML, CSS, HAML, SASS, JS, and jQuery. In programming, I have a continuously growing knowledge of PHP and Ruby on Rails. I have experience using: Git, SVN, Blueprint, minor SEO, and even more.

At DBS>Interactive I was originally hired as just a designer. Throughout the time I was there, I challenged myself to learn more about the programming side of things so that I could handle the simple tasks such as Wordpress integration.
