Profile and Objective

Web designer - Web developer

My objective is to work for a web agency that will give me the opportunity to work with multi/diverse projects, websites and clients. Therefore I am looking for a new position to build upon my current skills and gain new ones in the web design and web development fields.

I have 4 years experience as a web designer and web developer working with different companies and also privately.

During these 4 years I have used and developed several skills in these areas: web design and development, web usability, accessibility, graphic design, web marketing, programming, management and testing.

As my passion is visual design and communication I follow key trends on web design and graphic design.

Fluent in (X)HTML and CSS coding, I also have a very good knowledge of the major web design software such as Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Fireworks and Ftp programs, and a working knowledge of Javascript, Perl, CGI, Flash and Actionscript.
