I'm a design student in Denver, CO and a professional blogger for Weblogs, Inc. I primarily blog for TUAW.com and DownloadSquad.com, and I'm working on launching a graphic, image, web and motion portfolio at my personal freelancing site, dcharti.com, soon. I'm interested in human beings and being human, and when not doing any of the stuff I mentioned in the first paragraph, you can find me making music (guitar, bass, vocal), snowboarding, on a mountain bike, or spending quality time with the loveliest woman in the world: my wife.
