Summer 07: I'm wrapping up a few web projects, throwing myself into learning some new and upgraded software packages and upgrading some of my geek skills, and traveling. Whew!

My photos have been getting some high profile attention in links from prominent blogs and other photo-resources in recent months.

See my Portfolio page for other recent projects.

2001 - 2007: Web-projects, fine art photography, meditation, and endless learning.

7/97 through Winter 01: Webmaster for Killington Resort. The site has been very successful under my tenure, clearly the most successful of all American Skiing Company web sites by any measure. Traffic has been high; the site is large and informative, with almost 3,000 files on the server and average user sessions of 20 minutes under my tenure. User feedback has been very positive. My responsibilities during this period have included e-commerce, graphics, page design, information design, and site architecture. Working on something as big as killington.com has been a fun challenge, and I'd like to thank everyone at killington who made it a generally great experience. During this period I also worked on designing, building, and maintaining a number of other sites.

Other work in the period of '96 to the present has been in web development, both (very) large and small sites. All of my experience over the last 20 years -- working with images; writing, organizing, and designing information--converges in web work.

Skills:

Web Design -- Since '96 I've been very busy in all aspects of Web Design, Site Architecture, Information Design, eCommerce, database integration, Content Management, Javascript, CGI, and of course graphics. I've used a variety of tools, from hand coding (in BBEdit) to using WYSIWYG web tools like Adobe's GoLive and DreamWeaver. See my Web Work page for more.

Photoshop work/Graphic Design -- I've used Photoshop professionally since '94, and other computer graphics/design/layout tools as well since then, including Corel's Painter and Bryce, Adobe's Illustrator and Indesign, and Quark Xpress. Though most of my work has been for the web, I have also worked on print materials such as business cards to match a web design as well as very high resolution photographic pieces to be output on various high resolution devices.

Writing/Information Design -- In the early 90s I worked as a writer, publishing magazine articles in national magazines as well as pulling together several technical manuals on software products and hardware devices. Working with information and understanding the need to prepare well organized and tight content laid the foundation for web design. �

Photography -- Photography has been a serious focus of my time and energy. It's been an invaluable aid in developing my eye, and also it has sharpened my skills at producing web images. I'm currently involved in a big documentary project in the capacity of photographer, archivist, digital video editor, and web publisher for these photographic images.
