My name is Ryan Primeaux, and I am a Freelance Web Designer
I have nearly six years of experience in digital graphics, with five involved in web design and three in multimedia. I specialize in interactive website design, as well as CSS/XHTML and Flash development. I have limited experience with PHP, but am always willing to tackle new projects. I have over four years experience with Adobe Photoshop, and over three years experience with Adobe Dreamweaver and Flash. I have some experience with Adobe After Effects and Illustrator, ranging from small videos to t-shirt designs. Every website I create is cross-platform and browser compatible. I design and code on OS X, but design for all audiences. I have used a Windows operating system for over twelve years, and unix based systems for over four. I always design with the highest quality, and will never sacrifice the quality of a project for time. My resume is updated every month, and can be downloaded here.
A little about Ryan Primeaux...
I am currently residing in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I am in my second year at Louisiana State University, with a concentration in Computer Science. I am paying out-of-state residency tuition with the help of a Golden Oaks Scholarship. After my first year at LSU, I realized that this is definetly for me. I love the campus and most of the people that come with it. The state of Louisiana is slowly growing on me, even if the weather never decides what it wants to do.
When I'm not on my computer, I am a musician and an athlete. I play trombone, and also am a member of the Golden Band from TigerLand. I enjoy playing and watching sports, especially baseball and basketball. I also enjoy weight lifting in my free time, and am a proud member of the National Champion LSU Powerlifting team. My favorite foods are seafood and fried chicken. Some of the movies I watch and laugh to the most are The Big Lebowski and Office Space. As I have a passion for computers and designing, I also have a passion for music. I listen to jazz, country, and classic rock, although my favorite is heavy metal. Lamb of God and Chimaira top off my list as the best bands to listen to.
After I finish my years as an LSU Tiger, I would like to find a job as a graphic designer or web developer here in Louisiana. Even though I learn to code in school, my true passion is in the design field. Unlike many others, my dream job includes sitting behind a computer in a cubicle or office, and working all day on what I love.
How can I find Ryan Primeaux?
I feel like the only way to better yourself in doing anything you love is by constructive criticism. That is why I encourage comments and critique of my work. If you found something on my site that you like, something you want to know more about, or even something you thought could be better, please dont hesistate to contact me. Client meetings should be taken as seriously as a job interview, since it is all but the same thing. The best way to advertise a position like mine is by word of mouth, which is what I tell all of my clients. The fact that I love doing this is enough to keep me going, since I don't get paid for everything I do.
