I am a college graduate with 3 years working experience in the web design industry. I have a strong understanding of the design process and workflow related to designing or redesigning a website. I specialize in programming real world solutions in php and ColdFusion using MySQL databases. I am a quick learner, hard worker, and will continue learning additional programming languages while staying up to date with new technologies to better prepare myself as a developer.
