About

I grew up in northern Maine in a fully analog world and came to the web as it was becoming part of everyday life. The job I do now didn't even exist when I was visiting my guidance counselor back in the 1900s. I've kept one foot in the old world and one in the new, and am equally capable of setting the clock on a VCR or tracking down a mobile UI bug.

Whether carving a guitar body, replacing an exhaust system, sketching a portrait, or writing a line of code, I have found two rules that hold up across every discipline, culture, and era.

Do good work. Be easy to work with.

Let's make something rad.
