About
While I am an avid web developer and photographer, I received my degree from the University of Utah in Meteorology. While my field is not computer science or design, I have over 6 years of experience coding professional websites and over 10 years taking pictures for magazines and clients. Thankfully my full time job at the National Weather Service allows me to both use my weather and computer skills. While I currently reside in Salt Lake City, I am originally from Denver, Colorado and spent almost my entire life there. Want to know more or hire me, here is my resume.
When I am not working I have a nice sized laundry list of hobbies that occupy my time. Primarily, my favorite thing to do is anything and everything outdoors. Biking, hiking, camping, backpacking, skiing, if it is outdoors, I love it. Additionally, I love traveling and road tripping, and I am infamous for my life rule of at least getting out of town once a month. I believe it allows me not only to enjoy life more, but stay stress-free as well. After all is said in done, that leaves out 4 hours of my day for sleep, but hey, there is plenty of time to sleep when you are dead.
Lunarnoon has been around for over 10 years and under many different names. It all started out as FishWorld back in 1999 as my first personal web site that I used to chat and keep pictures on. By 2002, Fish World has become The Melee, the home to my first blog and my short-lived production business (I realized I was better at still photography than motion picture). That evolved into Fading Moon in early 2005, which began my true years of web design and profession photography. After 3 years, a name change was in order and Lunarnoon was introduced to the world. However, while the name has changed many times over the years, I am still the same person, and still do the same wonderful work you can see in my portfolio. The name Lunarnoon comes from the time in which the moon is highest overhead (just like solar noon). And while it's not as well recognized as the sun, the 'lunar noon' is very important to maintaining the balance on Earth.
