Where has the last year gone?

I am completely amazed that it has almost been a full year since my last post. I had promised myself time to work on the site, play around with the presentation, fix some of the design issues that have been bugging the crap out of me… but haven’t got to any of it. quelle surprise?

Working with Strut Creative has been a rollercoaster of a ride. What we figured would be a slow three year growth plan turned into a crazy push to scope, build and launch some of the largest projects that I have worked on within a very short time span. We’ve grown the web team from two FT devs to a mix of 11 FT and contractor devs, qa’s, jr and sr ppl.

Summer is here and it is time to golf, sit on patios, wear shorts and swim in lakes. Now if we can only get the rest of the work out of the way, or at least a more reasonable work/life schedule, the summer will be golden.

more to come i am sure…
