About Me

I am passionate about the web. I promote web standards with strong emphasis on usability and user experience, accessibility and SEO. I am client-side developer with sound knowledge of back-end technologies (namely PHP). I code in HTML + CSS and use JavaScript (mostly the amazing jQuery library) for unobtrusive enhancement of the web pages. I like solving problems.

I am currently looking into mobile web and closely follow HTML5 and CSS3 development. With the web paradigm shifting to ubiquitous mobile computing we will be seeing very interesting things happening...
