Senior Web Designer / SMS.ac
This was a very unique place to work (for me). The office was located right in the heart of Gas Lamp, in sunny San Diego, with an open loft space. The highlight of working there was when they rented 4-5 tour buses and took the whole office (120-140 employees) to Mission Bay, split us into teams, and kind of had an “Mtv Road Rules” type of competition.

Senior Web Developer / Emerald City Inc.
I worked with ex-Nintendo and ex-Microsoft programmers and received on the job training working with them learning about application development and scripting. This was my first "start-up" company and as other start-up's at that time, we had a great product and talented people, but we ran out of seed money and were unable to get investors. It was a great postion and was a let down when we closed shop.

Senior Web Developer / Exotics Lifestyles
I moved to Los Angeles for this job and lived and worked in Beverly Hills. The actual office was in the "Larry" Flynt building and sometimes just the elevator ride up to my office had pretty interesting people. I networked with many other people in my field and was fun experiencing the graphic design and web design industry while in Los Angeles in the late 90s.
