I'm sure you have figured out by now that my name is Kim MacLeod. Or perhaps I just like building sites under someone else's name. Some know me by my maiden name, Kim Luong.
I have been working in IT as a web/application developer for over 11 years now, mostly in Higher Education.
My focus has mostly been in design, both graphical and interfaces. Building websites for my family and friends has become a hobby. It's come to the point that I get asked, "Do you freelance? I have a friend that could use a new website." I pick up some jobs here and there when they are small because I want to have a life outside of my real job.
Freelancing does help stay creative outside of my day job. In 2012, I officially formed For All Things Design, LLC.
Things I like to do:
- Build Websites
- Build Templates for various CMSs
- Create logos and an identity businesses
- Editing pictures (trying to work on my Photoshop skills)
My newest interest is wedding invitations. I also like helping people with their resumes. I am always amazed at how poorly people represent themselves on a document that has such a impact on how the future of their career can go.
Outside of the IT realm, I enjoy:
- Learning to cook new things
- Traveling
- Meeting new people
- Spending time with family
