I have made websites since the age of seventeen. Now twenty-three I have done it professionally for five years. My chief skill is CSS & HTML placing making me more of a designer than a developer. I am also familiar with JavaScript and PHP syntax to the degree I can manipulate, customize, debug, and improve programs written in them. I have four years photo manipulation experience with Photoshop, but more so GIMP. I have experience in the user interface design, user experience, user moderation, site administration, content management, search engine optimization, and internet business practice.
My art style tends to favor minimalism. I enjoy the colors black, blue, gray, black, white, and teal. These colors tend to permeated my artwork along with elements of voids, religion, and architecture, nature, and cyber-punk concepts. Reflections of my introverted yet talkative nature.
The angel in “Angel of Code” has a similar meaning to angel as in “angel investor.” I tend to offer start-up skill to aid people in their usually emotionally stressful yet ultimately liberating business ventures. The case with my clients tends to be they have little to no start-up capital, just enough or barely enough to make a website, but they have a well-formed business idea. I then aid them in making that a web reality.
Capital is barely needed to create a website in this age, but increasing amounts of skill is. $10 USD for a domain annually, and $20 USD for hosting a month, (both sometimes optional for extremely small projects). The rest lays in the creation of the site and its implementation, skills I give in expectation of later, usually far later payment.
In my mind I am doing this for free. There are far to many horror stories for me to expect every client I take on to be a hand crafted glove of compatibility, let alone pay me the thousands of dollars my time and skills are actually worth.
I write code and refine code because it is something I enjoy.
