About

Michael Prefers (and Strongly Recommends) Tea as an Obviously Superior Alternative to Coffee

In September of 1994, I created the first version of this portfolio Website. It’s put together in no particular order and has gone through countless variations along the way. Over the years, I’ve added and subtracted stuff and completely changed the design and architecture more than a few times. The purpose of the site is to provide an online sandbox where I can try new things and have fun.

I specialize in web standards, accessibility (Section 508, WCAG), search engine optimization, content management system theming (Drupal, WordPress), and mobile web design (general wireless, iPhone web apps). I develop sites using XHTML, CSS, JavaScript, DOM scripting, Ajax, and XHTML-MP in a variety of environments such as Apache/Tomcat, IIS, PHP/MySQL, ASP/SQL, .NET, and Java Struts/Tiles.

If you’d like to see some of my photographs, I’ve moved them all to my Flickr account. To see samples of online projects I’ve worked on—both as an employee and as a freelance developer—check out my portfolio. I always enjoy receiving feedback, so please contact me anytime.
