Developer, Designer, Project Manager

With 20 years’ experience in the technology industry, I can comfortably take on any task requiring HTML5, CSS, SCSS, LESS, JAVASCRIPT, JQUERY, PHP, WORDPRESS, C# and guarantee that I can complete the work to a high level of expertise and more importantly, to your satisfaction. I left the corporate world of long hours and constant bureaucracy at The Smithsonian and National Geographic behind me and started my own company, Staftec, LLC. It is my goal to help make good quality websites accessible to company, be it small or large, as I firmly believe that without a quality web presence, any serious business is missing out on a huge part of the current market. I work alongside my wife, who is an amazing Artist, Designer and Copywriter and we will work together to make your dream website a reality. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, and I look forward to working with you.

It was a pleasure working with John, really took the time to understand my business and tailored the best game plan complete and launch a functional website. Most importantly he is a man with a lot of integrity and principals. A lot of programmers can code, but John brings a lot good qualities that are hard to find in a programmer. We are lucky to have worked with him. Sincerely, Dirty Drawz laundry Service
