My career comprises over 19 years of professional experience in the areas of website design, development and deployment, digital and scholarly publishing, multi-media production, project management, Agile, Scrum, and client support. With knowledge of numerous tools related to coding, design, development, and publishing, along with a carefully cultivated sense of organizational acumen, I bring a dedicated, driven, and supportive spirit to all professional endeavors.
When not in the virtual world, I usually want to be outside and can be found running, walking, biking , gardening, hiking , practicing and teaching yoga , honing my archery skills or aspiring to be a Jedi . I am also a proud dog daddy and honored husband to a wonderful woman in a mixed-race marriage.
I also follow sci-fi, cyberpunk, and fantasy genre movies and television shows and enjoy reading novels and comic books , studying Buddhism , Taoism , yoga, eastern philosophy, and putting in volunteer and community service hours when I can.
