New Site Design

Welcome to the first iteration of my new site! It's been on my agenda for quite awhile but always got bumped to the back of the queue until this month.

I'm writing it by hand, as I prefer to know how my code/scripts work rather than having to rely on templates or propriatary design tools. This first iteration was a desktop-first design, so apologies in advance if you're looking at this on a phone and in landscape orientation. I'm tackling my mobile-focused CSS now and plan on having it ready sometime in the next month. In the meantime, I'd appreciate hearing any feed back you want to share, and let me know whether you run into any issues!

I'm still working on getting new pages together for all my projects, so you may encounter a link that doesn't lead to a new page. I'll be uploading new pages as I get their images and copy together, so if there's something you aren't able to see/access please check back soon.
