Welcome to RaggieSoft!
I am a web developer with experience dating back to 1997. If you are interested in hiring me, please visit my Portfolio for contact information and my relocation policy.
If you are here to see examples of my work, this website was crafted lovingly by hand using HTML, PHP, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, jQuery, and Bootstrap. My Book Reader is what I primarily work on to show off what I am able to do.
