Christina and Promi
Born in Belgium to great lovers of the arts, I grew up with a deep appreciation for art and culture. Though my family was more interested in classical arts, my passion for technology as well as art led me towards the world of media arts. Once I graduated from high school in Belgium, I got on a plane to the Big Apple with one specific purpose in mind – to pursue a career in web design and make it on my own. Although I have always been an autodidact, I felt it was important to solidify my training in web design if I was to have a long and successful career. That’s when I decided to pursue a B.F.A. in Media Arts (majoring in Web Design & Interactive Media) at The Art Institute of New York City, where I also happened to meet my lovely wife. I enjoyed my studies tremendously and feel that they have contributed a great deal to my professionalism in the field of web design. Now, several years since graduation, I am proud to be responsible for the creation and maintenance of tens of websites in both the private and the public sector. My main specializations are HTML and CSS design, though I am also well-versed in e-commerce features, search engine optimization, platforms, and advertising. I’m also a strong believer in continuing education. Therefore, I make it a point to be on the cutting edge of graphic design and digital media. Aside from web design, I devote much of my time to my hobbies – photography, animation, and film. And of course my wonderful family – Christina my wife and our 2 children, who make it all worthwhile.
