Personal Website

🤙 I’m a web designer and developer that tries to help other people get better at those things.

I’m the co-founder of CodePen, a social development environment for web designers and developers. CodePen is a front-end focused IDE in the browser allowing people to write HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and related languages. It’s as much of a community and social network as a coding platform.

Along with Dave Rupert, I’m the co-host of a podcast called ShopTalk, a show about (you guessed it) building websites. We’re over 10 years and 500 episodes strong!

I built CSS-Tricks, a website all about building websites, and ran it for 15 years, from 2007 to 2022, before selling it to DigitalOcean.

I’m big on the power of writing as a way to improve yourself and be successful.
