Let me tell you about myself

Game Designer / Educator / Electronic Musician / DJ

I design and produce games, and manage a team of talented producers and designers, at OMGPOP in New York City. Some of our projects:

Boom Friends: Got a minute? Match as many "Boom Friends" to bombs of the same color before they explode! For iPhone & iPod Touch.

Gem Rush: Dig deep, collect gems and beat your friends in the weekly tournament! Play now on Facebook.

Pool World Champ: Play with friends, conquer the world. Play now on Facebook.

Puppy World: The cutest game in the universe! Raise insanely adorable puppies and protect the world with Puppy Power! For iPhone & iPod Touch.

I authored CSS Fundamentals, a DVD with over 7 hours of instruction and tutorials on CSS. Topics covered include everything from basics to advanced techniques, as well as frameworks, print design, and mobile design. I would like to publish more books or DVDs on subjects within my expertise, and would be open to any opportunities from publishing companies.

I currently serve as the community lead and one of the core contributors for Blueprint CSS, the most popular CSS framework on the web. I designed and support the official website for Blueprint, and I also designed Construct, a visual layout editor based on Blueprint.

In my spare time I make electronic music. I also DJ. You can listen to my work and connect to my social network profiles at thisisdecktonic.com. Some of my projects:

Dark Mode (Love & Tonic Records): I hope you like bass. Free download @ Bandcamp.

Midnight (MK837 Records): A tasty retro electro track ready for the dancefloor. Includes remixes from DJ Salty Flavor, Reid K and Deeflash. Buy it @ Bandcamp.
