My name is Thomas, and I'm 28 years of age, originally from Lowell, Massachusetts (20 minutes outside of Boston). I started my programming career at age 10 with my first computer. I read the source code of every website I could find, and read every tutorial and all the doc sheets I could get my hands on. I would eat, sleep, and breath computers. Fast forward 18 years, and here I am today. I have 18+ years experience, 8 of which was spent working daily with the following technologies: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL, AJAX, various frameworks, and much more. Shortly into my freelancing career, I realized that I wouldn't get far unless I started to learn graphic designing and server administration skills as well. That being said, I added Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Flash to my toolkit, and began learning all I could about Apache and recently Nginx. While I mainly do web development and design, that does not mean it's ALL that I do. During my years freelancing, I've done jobs ranging from simple Wordpress fixes, to year-long, ground up e-commerce solutions. I'm excellent with payment processors, plugin development, debugging, and so much more. Freelancing has allowed me to try my hand with almost every possible job out there. Freelancing is not only about programming and design, however. Customer service is also a top priority of mine. Being able to effectively communicate with clients is a skill that all successful freelancers must possess, in my opinion. I speak excellent English, I respond quickly to any and all questions, and I'm always available via Skype or Cell when needed.
