I am a Christian (yes, dorky, even), husband to my beautiful wife & best friend of TEN years and father of three adorable children. In my spare time, I like to play guitar and coach little kids' baseball.
I use this website to log my thoughts, happenings & whatnot. Sometimes my posts are work or web-related & sometimes they are family-related or just random.
I produce creative design and code for a living at Visual Notion.
I know I've been gifted with abilities in the realm of logo design, graphic design, layout, web design, CSS, and Drupal. I recognize that part but, I've never fancied myself as awesome or truly great at it, by any means. It's an interesting dichotomy as I know the talent is there, but the vast majority of the time, I don't feel as though I'm truly good at it. (Come to think of it, I've always felt the same way about playing the guitar too, despite playing for seventeen years)
Anyway, I do make my living as a designer and developer (well, I don't even feel I can call myself that even if I do Drupal installs, custom configurations, complex theming and CSS work). It pays the bills and I like what I do, but I've always noticed that I have an inferiority complex about it. It's much more noticeable when I look at the work of others. Now, I know you can be brought low by comparing yourself to others if you're not careful, but I don't think that's always a bad thing. If nothing else it helps keep your ego in check.
I just don't understand why I've always felt this way, though.
