I'm a user-experience craftsman. Doesn't matter if I'm doing front-end code, or database architecture, my focus is on creating an amazing experience. My preference is to work in the front-end, but I can speak and code SQL (3 flavors!), Ruby, PHP, and Coldfusion if necessary. In terms of front end skills I'd say:

I'm a sassy (scss) HTML high 5-er that prefers Java(script) over Coffee(script). I like to keep my applications on Rails, and make them a bit more Angular when necessary. I'm passionate about progressive enhancement, but realistic about deadlines, budgets, and "good enough."​ I can Grunt, Gulp, and Bower my way through projects on a Node with help from a Yeoman if necessary. I've recently Regex'd my way to some new skills, and I'm always ready to learn more.

All kidding aside, my focus is on great user-experiences. I'll use whatever technology I can to deliver the best experience possible.

My peers have referred to me as "the fastest prototyper in the west"​ and I'm pretty proud of that.
