About

Ceramic photography in Sicily. Credit: Leah Koerper.
I’m a Senior Politics major at Whitman College working as the Webmaster for the Whitman Pioneer.
I’m also working as the Hosting Director for CoPress where I work to make the web accessible to college journalism.
When I’m not working on school-related things I enjoy reading, traveling, photography, and of course, web design.
This blog is a reflection of many of my interests that lie outside of my academic studies. They may not be things that I’ve studied in a formal classroom, but they are certainly things that I’m passionate about.
You can find more of me on Twitter, Flickr, Tumblr, and Last.fm. If you’re interested you can also see more of my projects like:
- Summer Web Design Camp 2009 – A joint venture with Daniel Bachhuber and CoPress to create a fast-paced summer web design camp for college web developers.
- News Evolved – A Wordpress theme for small news sites. Currently a customized version of this theme is being used by the Mills College Campanil.

I always have found it fascinating to read through what other bloggers, writers, designers, etc. use throughout there day, so here’s my list.
- The Hit List for task management
- Textmate for web design
- iWork for all school-related assignments
- Wordpress for content management
- Mail.app for the far-too-much email I receive
- Dropbox for synching
- Twitter for staying on top of what people are doing and working on
- Fever for RSS feed reading
- Delicious Library for all my books
- Aperture for photos
- Final Cut Express for videos
