About Me
Hello. My name is Mike. I design websites. I currently work as the Interactive Design Lead for an ad agency in Lincoln, Ne.
I designed & built my first website when I was in college in 2001. Flash is what first caught my eye for the business. I loved the coding aspect of Flash, and immediately became obsessed with it. My obsession with Flash & coding then spawned my passion for CSS, web usability, and user interaction.
This site serves as my interactive playground. A place where I can play with code, share with the public, and learn through interaction. I'm a huge advocate of open source, and I'm not one to hoard my code. I learned by looking at other people's code, and I hope others can learn from mine.
