CURRICULUM VITAE OF

- Digital Art Direction | User Experience Design | User Interface Design –
The man behind the name
I am a UI UX designer with an interest in anything front-end related, and all-around web nerd currently living in Toronto Ontario. I am well versed in design trends and usability with a strong handle on CSS, HTML and from time to time I dabble in JavaScript. Taking from my experiences working with clients, I have a keen eye to always keep the customer in mind to deliver a product that is focused around human-centered design. I believe the perfect balance of form and function equals usability. Overall design is not meant to just look pretty; it should also serve a purpose and solve problems. The result is a beautiful, well-planned product that is user-friendly and engaging.
The web is my playground. My passion. My obsession.
05 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME
If NASA was to announce the first mission to explore the universe, I would be the first to signup.

“You take the red pill --you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.” A quote from the Matrix. Best movie of all times.
If I had 1 wish, I would wish for a Delorean to travel to the future, not play the lottery or anything. But to witness the growth and development of the worldwide web in all its glory.
