About Lance

I have been inolved in website development since 1998. It has been my personal mission to always stay on top of current website development standards and practices. I am very experienced in many server side, client side, and markup technologies. I work on a freelance or consultant basis and am always looking for new clients.

Graphics — I use Adobe’s Creative Suite for image editing and graphics creation for website graphics, logo design and layouts.
Microsoft’s .Net Framework — I use .Net for sites that require a Microsoft hosting environment or require specific .Net libraries. I have been deeply rooted in .Net development since it’s inception.
Ruby on Rails (RoR) — I am experienced with RoR as a MVC-based server-side technology. The ease and clarity of MVC technologies matched with RoR’s wealth of plugins and resources make it the perfect choice for most websites.
Databases & SQL — I am greatly experienced with many RDMS’ and all of my websites are database-driven for ease in updating and increased functionality.
JavaScript & AJAX — I have a long history of in-depth JavaScript and AJAX development. Client-side scripting is a great facilitator in usability.
CSS — Using CSS I believe all markup should be elegant, standards-compliant and cross-browser friendly. Aesthetically pleasing websites do not require the sacrifice of clean HTML or XML.
RSS — News Feeds, Blogs and Podcasting are a must-have in many sites for many reasons. I am quite experienced in these areas.
Web Services & Mash-Ups — It is becoming increasingly important for other websites, software and devices to be able to pull information from a website. I have experience with SOAP, WSDL and XML.
