About Tiffany B. Brown
Email me or call me at 1-678-292-0244 • Freelance rates and information
I am a web developer and designer with seven years experience coding for the Web. I started my career as a producer for online media outlets. I taught myself the finer points of HTML, CSS and JavaScript, picked up some PHP and MySQL along the way, and dabbled with Flash / Actionscript to boot.
I am passionate about web development and how people use technology to connect and inform. This is my home base on the web where I write about web development topics and internet culture with frequent detours into politics, the Atlanta scene, and whatever is happening in my life.
