About Steve

First of all, thanks for stopping by my website and taking the time to get to know me a little bit better! Whether you’re a friend, family member, prospective client, or just a curious passerby, I hope you enjoy everything I’ve provided on the site, and that you find what you came looking for.

If what you’re looking for is a little bit more information about me, you’re in the right place.  I’m a 29 year old web developer and programmer living in southern California.  I was born and raised in southern Illinois, but I’ve been on the west coast since about 2001, so this definitely qualifies as ‘home’ for me.

I’ve been programming professionally for about 6 years now, with most of my experience in web-related technologies like PHP and Ruby on Rails, but I dabble with all sorts of things, and love all things programming. I work for a really cool company called Sleepy Giant Entertainment that provides game platform and development services for a whole list of big name organizations like BBC, ABC, Discovery, Fox, and a ton of others.  Needless to say, I love my job, and I love what I do.

Outside of work, I’m still programming, between freelance work and contributions to projects that I’ve released to the Open Source community.  You can get a sampling of some of my programming by checking out my GitHub page.  If you’re here wondering if there’s some work that I can do for you, please get in touch, I’d be happy to talk your project over.

When it’s possible to drag me away from my computer, I spend time with my family, taking advantage of the beautiful place that is Orange County, California, and trying to keep up with my massive, (and growing), reading list.
