- Variation Within Constraints
- When I design sites in my professional life, I try to create an experience that will work for the majority of the site’s visitors and will also be engaging, and most times, in that order. With my personal site, I’m pretty much trying the reverse of that.

- A New Day
- I still like my old site design; it feels distinct even now, and I didn’t really see the point in redesigning until I needed to. My old site stayed in generally the same form for nearly five years. But I finally caved and redesigned. So, why the change? I’m glad you asked.
