in a nutshell...

I do interactive design work. It's more of a hobby really. A fantastically rich and engrossing hobby which provides me with all of the creative opportunities that my dabbling artistic hear desires. And I do dabble. But unlike most dabblers, I dabble with purpose and dabble until the dabble's done. Don't mistake my reverie in the inane as a lack of focus. That's just the way I like it.
