I am a multidisciplinary web designer / developer, which means that I can do BOTH design and development! I work as a part-time web administrator for a local company that sells satellite and networking hardware. I am responsible for entering data and various other administrative tasks using their ecommerce platform (osCommerce). As a freelancer, I have been using Concrete5 CMS almost exclusively since 2009. Although most projects I've done in the past were built with Concrete, I will find and use the appropriate CMS that best fits the project.
