About Me

I am a web ninja

… well, almost. I have a long history and passion for digital design and martial arts. But “web ninja” sounds far more interesting.

Web

Computer Geek

I have been creating websites since 1996 when Netscape was king and animated GIFs were in style. My winding career finally landed me in the awesome new world of UX (user experience). Designing digital experiences for the masses has taught me to care deeply about the individual.

Karate Pose

While it is not Ninjitsu, I studied Shotokan karate for fifteen years and taught it for another three. While my roots are in karate, we incorporated Judo throws, Greco-Roman wrestling, Aikido joint locks, and western boxing. I am currently a 4th-degree black belt, and while I no longer teach regular classes, my martial arts journey is not yet over.
