A 24-Hour Hackathon for Humanity
A viral campaign to help Japan
A small team I was on created this website in a 24-hour sprint. We had seen the momentum humanitarian efforts could gain from viral campaigns. This inspired us to create a viral campaign that successfully galvanized shoppers and businesses to donate to the Japanese earthquake relief efforts. Over 60 businesses signed up around the world and over $10,000 was raised. Go to ShopForJapan.com.

About
My start with web development began in 1998 when I installed Slackware Linux, and fired up Apache. The next year I created Cybervillian.com, a Windows security information website. It received thousands of hits per month, and at the time I was 15 years old.
In college I studied psychology, researched visual perception, and published research on social cognition. After a year teaching English in South Korea, I returned to web development.
Now I am a web technologist with expertise developing for the mobile web. My number one goal is to build easy-to-use, beautiful experiences. I live in San Francisco and take full advantage of the tech scene. I work on side projects, go to meetups, and brainstorm app ideas with colleagues.
