My approach to web design focuses on simplicity, easy-of-use, and minimalism. I am a flexible developer who loves to learn new skills. Core skill areas include: Any and all FOSS, Unix-like systems, and graphic design.

This website

An ultra-lightweight website designed and deployed entirely using Cloudflare Pages.

Design Philosophy


I believe that too many web designers are focusing on extravagance over efficiency. My sites do not feature spinning buttons, flashing pictures, or image carousels - rather, they load in less than a second.
