Hi my name is

Emerson

I am a product designer, software engineer, and problem solver. I make websites and web apps. I work with startups, individuals, small businesses and everyone in between. I care as much about how things look as how they work. I enjoy writing and teaching what I know. The best part about my job is constantly learning new things.
