Have a Question?

Q: Can you design my website?

I work full time as a creative director at AgencyNet with offices in New York, Fort Lauderdale and Los Angeles. I am not currently accepting freelance projects. However, AgencyNet is accepting new business.

Q: How can I advertise on this site?

I offer ad space in the side bar for both text ads and custom banner ads.  For more details on advertising opportunities and pricing  click here.

Q: Do you have any design industry advice?

In a nutshell, the most important thing is to grow your skill-set by building a strong portfolio. I also recommend reading design books, blogs and going to web design conferences to get some fresh inspiration and to meet others.

It’s also really important to stay on top of creative trends from multiple industries – not just web design. Web design doesn’t live it a bubble. It’s a means to an end, not the destination. Twitter just might be the most powerful tool when it comes to keeping up to date with what’s current. Be sure to follow some “people in the know”.

Q: What are some of your favorite websites?

For  industry related advice I recommend the following sites: Smashing Magazine, Behance Network, The 99 Percent, The FWA,  A List Apart, Adverblog and Unmatched Style (to name a few). For fun reads and videos, I enjoy Dooce and iJustine.

Q: What was it like to be on Average Joe:Hawaii?

I tend to get AJ questions after it re-airs overseas or on the Reality Network, and for me — over six years later, it’s kind of like beating a dead horse (as the expression goes). It was a small part of my life but also a great experience where I had the opportunity to go on some amazing adventures in Hawaii.  At the end of the day, it was a reality show and not real life.
