About

Newbkg_BW

As I stated earlier, I’m a Web Designer and PHP developer from Pasadena Ca. I have been a life long tech enthusiast and began studying web design at Santa Monica College. I grew up and attended school in Los Angeles where I studied music and electronics.

I taught Web Development technologies at ABCO Technology in Los Angeles from 2015 through 2017. I instructed courses on HTML, CSS, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, JavaScript and  jQuery….. If it’s web development, then I’m your man.

Currently I volunteer as a web developer for Jericho Road Pasadena,  a great organization that matches the professional talents of volunteers with the needs of community-based nonprofit organizations.

I’m into learning as much as I can about dynamic scripting languages and databases. My first choice was PHP because its open source and has a great support community. I have worked a few projects in ASP.NET and ColdFusion. When I put my mind to something, I get results. I plan to continue as an instructor and freelance web developer in the immediate future.
