Hi! I’m James!
I'm a web developer out of Philadelphia. My life consists of providing World-Class Customer Support, hunched over a keyboard and cup of coffee.
A brief introduction
With over 10 years of experience in remote technical support and team building I have been using my skills to promote the possibilities of enhancing personal and professional independence using the internet and technology to build relationships and businesses online.
In 2009 I began working as a Webmaster — focusing on content creation and technical support working with people from all over the US and Europe developing an internet-based community that touched thousands of lives. During this time I made connections with some incredible people, some with handicaps that they were able to overcome with the support the community. This kickstarted my passion for technology and its potential to improve the quality of life for people with disabilities and beyond. The internet can enable individuals in all walks of life access to an avenue of independence using tools (like this website you're at right now) on the web.

Today we mark the passing of one of the greatest minds of our time. Stephen Hawking has died at the age of 76. His book A Brief History of Time helped millions of people grasp the origins of the universe. I read it for the first time when I was 15 years old. A friend had gifted it to me before i had ever really knew and it was then I began to realize the limitations posed by the body we are tasked to explore the cosmos with is no match for the three pound suspended inside of our skulls.
