About Me

My name is Joseph Valdez and I am an Interactive Designer and developer living in Gardena, California. I begin studying web design in 1998. Then in 2000 I graduated Platt College Cerritos with a certicate in Multi-Media Graphic Design. I studied Flash when it used to be called Future Splash. In 2000 I got a job with Malibupost.com and helped create the very first Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf site called the coffeebean.com. Next, I went on to study many web and application programming languages. I've always tried to stay on the cutting edge of development. I am currently working on a WordPress site with custom widgets for a musician.
