My Development Ethos

I take a technology agnostic approach to web development and am a firm believer that finding the best technological fit for a problem and organization is vital. I proactively research new technologies and am constantly searching for better solutions to old problems (such as accessibility and cross browser compatibility). Above all, developers and IT professionals should take responsibility for what they do and take pride in their work.
