Javie Rios’s Summary
Hello, my name is Javier Rios but everyone calls me Javie. I have a passion for design and the internet, so I cannot think of anything else more fun to do for a living then designing for the web. Having no formal training, I am constantly motivated in perfecting my skills and changing with the ways of the fast web world.
I currently work at Howard Community College as a Sports Technician. There I manage information that goes on the College Athletics and Fitness Center Department website. I often lead creative teams in developing visual aides and interactive programs and create print and web graphics as needed for events and sponsors. While managing and coordinating events such as the 10th National Outdoor Track and Field Championships, I help bring in sponsorship revenue through multiple venues.
Prior to becoming a Sports Technician, I was recipient of the Lion's Club Scholarship from 2005-2007, awarded to me in light of winning the Belmont Project in 2005. As a result, I became web master for the Athletic Department and a Concept Web Designer for the Entrepreneur program at Howard Community College. As a part of this job, I worked with individuals who ranged in skill and knowledge ability of interactive design.
When I am not designing or running, I am planning events for Refresh Baltimore. A community of elite designers and developers working together to refresh the creative, technical, and professional culture in the Baltimore area through design, technology, usability, and standards.
I am always looking forward to collaborating on work, just send me an e-mail at hello@javierios.com
