About Me

I’m a User Interface Designer for Monotype Imaging, Inc (fonts.com) in Mt. Prospect, IL. I have been designing and developing websites for over 10 years now and love doing it. Although my main focus is designing/developing websites, I love animation. The main two areas of animation I love doing is Motion Graphics and 3D Animation.

Since the web is always evolving, it motivates me to continue learning the latest trends.
