Alana Post’s Summary

I have demonstrable expertise in HTML, CSS, print design, video/audio editing, hardware/software support and web integration. My layout sensibilities and color coordination skills are very solid. I've got years of experience using Adobe Photoshop and Macromedia Dreamweaver, and know my way around the other software in their suites. Currently shifted into TextMate w/Coda and Acorn for dev/design, and I'm learning git for version control.

In addition to design work, I've done project management and technical support for high-profile clients for a NYC-based technological services company.

I'm really interested in nonprofit technology implementation, useful web applications, social networking sites, user interface, web accessibility, human-computer interaction, network sociology, good experience, organizational technology, and common-sense design.
