Yo,

My name is James and I make handcrafted websites because I absolutely love to and I'm crazy. I'm passionate about internet technologies and the ability to create positive changes in the world. Currently, I'm heavily involved in the early stages of Calendar.fm, Arttup, and 365hub.

Things like HTML5, CSS3, and jQuery send chills down my spine.

I would consider myself an entrepreneur for lack of a better word. Perhaps ninja would be more appropriate probably not.

In my free time I love to climb rocks, ski mountains, take pictures, and admire the wonderful beauty bestowed upon us by this amazing planet. I currently reside in the coolest city ever (Seattle, WA) and loving every minute of it.

I'm a self taught college dropout developer who crafts pixels for the web with html, css, and javascript, creates backend data solutions with php and mysql, and throughouly enjoys working on LAMP stacks (Linux server with Apache, MySQL, & PHP installed). In other words, I'm kinda but not really a total nerd baller.

Some of my favorite tools & frameworks: which I'm so thankful for (more to come)

• MacBook Pro
• Custom Built Battle Station / Dev Server Quad Core, 8gb ddr3, 23" widescreen, Filco Keyboard, g5 Mouse w/ Steel Series Mousepad (I love Starcraft 2)
• Git (find me on github)
• Ruby on Rails awesome ruby framework for making web applications
• CodeIgniter for building kick ass php web apps
• Bootstrap created by twitter
• SASS for writing CSS fast as f***

TL;DR I'm a chill dude that makes websites and enjoys life. And yes, that weird looking dude over there is me.
