My name is Brian. I'm a full-stack web developer, but with a concentration front-end and UI. I studied at DePaul University in Chicago and received a BS in Computer Graphics and Animation and a MS in Computer Science. I first taught myself HTML so I could make a website for me and my friend's BMX team in Junior High. Back then, in the 28.8bps modem days, I had to host it on 4 different Angelfire accounts just to work around the free 5mb storage limit. I didn't mind the extra work it took to set it up, as long as I wasn't spending my entire weeks of allowance on web hosting. I still remember being so amazed that I could upload a new picture or video, click save, and bam, all my friends could see it too. Recently I moved from Chicago to San Francisco where I continue making websites and riding my bike (which is not quite a BMX bike anymore). With the gorgeous scenery and invasive fog aside, SF has been a great place for me to stay keen on web technology with all the tech events and meetups around the city. There has never been so much to do. If you would like to learn more about my professional experience, visit me on LinkedIn.
