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 hyper-sweet. I've got years of experience using Adobe Photoshop and Dreamweaver, and know my way around the other software in their suites. Currently shifted into BBEdit or TextMate w/Coda and Acorn for dev/design, and I'm learning both git and svn for version control.
In addition to design work, I've done project management and reasonably difficult technical support for the high-profile clients of a NYC-based technological services company. Ask me from which award-winning actress' laptop I removed a virus: I'll never tell!
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.
