Minus A Cool Guy/Programmer

December 22, 2008

Casey D

See that guy up there, his name is Casey. He’s been our lead programmer at work for over two years now. He started a month or so before I did at AWP and no one had any idea how awesome he’d be, and how much he’d revolutionize what we do with our websites and business.

Today was Casey’s last day at work. Technically he’ll be programming a little bit into the future for us but probably not within these office walls. We cranked out a lot of fun projects during his time here and are finishing up an epic redesign of IthacaEvents.com. He introduced us all to the world of GarfieldMinusGarfield and hooked us up with liquid nitrogen. We also watched him transform from a novice pianist to an awesome bandmate with improv skills to spare (see video below).

Casey, if you’re reading this, I’m linking to your website and tweets now, so, time to keep up on both of those. Thanks for the good times. We’ll see you at Wednesday band practice, dude. Oh, and I’ll keep an eye on your ergonomic chair for now.

Photos ∞

If I'm not parenting or working, I'm probably taking pictures of people. Some of my non-people photography is available to license on Getty Images while many others are available with a Creative Commons license on Flickr.

Vimeos ∞

I also have a YouTube account you can check out.

Blackout ∞

When I launched the previous version of sursly.com I designed it based on this font that I created.

Lickety Split ∞

My most recent typeface! It originated as crayon on index cards and is beautifully sloppy.

Ostrich Sans ∞

An open source font family that I created and happily share over at The League of Moveable Type.

Guilder ∞

An elegant condensed typeface in several styles (and featured as headings in this current site design).

Dribbble ∞

there are so many people out there making incredible things. I don't contribute as often as I'd like because I'm busy packing lunches for a six year old.

A Little Background

I specialize in web, logo and font design (& brand development) in Ithaca, New York. I have freelanced since 2003, when I received a BFA in Film, Photography, and Visual Arts. I spent over one year as a designer for Sharktooth Creative (lots of Flash and print design), then nearly three years with the wonderful AWP, a year and a half as a designer at Ithaca College, and a year with Singlebrook. I take photos of interesting people and places.

I've raised a healthy son. We have fun. I make music. I run races. I take little vacations. I survived a month long trip to India. And I recently began eating meat again for the first time in 6 years.
