graham new, designer

British transplant who hails from the sunny south coast of England (home region consistently averages 17 days of sunshine per year -- best in the country!). Former chef who decided eating in restaurants was more fun than working in them. University of Georgia grad who caught the web design bug while pursuing a journalism degree.

Hates boiled peanuts. Loves old punk music.

Strives for simplicity in life and in web/application design. Thinks that due to the convergence of web standards, usability, SEO, RIA techniques and higher levels of graphic design, now is the most exciting period of the internet era so far. Enjoys playing bass guitar (poorly but loud enough that quality doesn't matter too much). Takes pride in his children -- Charlotte whose ambition is to remain a kid as long as possible, and David who is determined to become extremely rich or a comedian.
