As you may have guessed, I am a web developer. I love coding for the web, & do so primarily in a MAMP setting. I also love web design, and although I'm not a designer myself, I have a passion for bringing others' designs to life with HTML, CSS, & jQuery. This website is a small portfolio of my freelance work.

Currently, I am living in Brooklyn, NY in a beautiful brownstone with my boyfriend Brian and our crazy cat Ned (short for Nedward Edward Balzer-McAllister. Yep!). We spend a lot of time exploring our city on our bikes and generally eating our way around town. I used to play rugby for the wonderful Suffolk Bull Moose team (I played flanker, if you're curious) but have been too busy to make it out lately, though I miss it a ton and would love to do some pickup games if I find the time. In the meantime, I aspire to learn how to skateboard and play the accordion, and eventually learn how to do both at the same time. It will be awesome.

When I'm not out goofing off, I work at one of the most amazing creative companies around, Behance. We are doing incredible things within the creative community, including organizing and empowering creative types with our Network, showcasing talent across several mediums on our Served sites, and helping anyone and everyone organize and their ideas and bring them to life with our Action Method products. Undoubtedly, you will love us just as much as we love doing what we do.

If you are interested in having some freelance work done, I encourage you to contact my incredibly talented boyfriend Brian McAllister. He is a graphic designer (he is the one responsible for this website's fantastic design!) and regularly takes on work including graphic design, web design, and web development. You will love working with him.

This website was designed with the 960 grid system. For a glimpse at perfection, press and hold G, or press G+H together.
