Wil Alambre
Wil works for Visual Lizard Inc. Wil is a web developer. Wil has been a web developer for over eight years. Wil likes working on web sites. Wil makes web pages in his spare time. Wil is one of those lucky people who get’s paid for doing what he loves doing. Wil would happily work on web sites for free. But Wil needs to pay bills. Luckily, developing web sites pays Wil’s bills. Lucky Wil.
Wil is influenced by many things, and it is reflected in Wil’s work. Wil likes comic books. Wil continues to collect graphic novels from a variety of publishers to this day. Wil likes movies, even the cheesy bad ones. Wil is one of those people that keep Hollywood in business, despite the drek they put out. Wil plays video games. Wil owns a Gamecube, and defies anyone to convince him he made the wrong choice. Wil plays roleplaying games, both table top and live action. Wil likes roleplaying because it’s like playing pretend as kids.
Wil was a kid in Thompson, Manitoba, Canada. Wil was very cold there. Wil moved down to Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada to continue his schooling. Wil is less cold here. Wil attended the University of Manitoba and Robertson College. But many of Wil’s skills were self taught. Wil spent many a moment in front of a computer. Wil read web sites. Wil learned web sites. Wil built web sites.
Wil entered the web industry in 2000. Wil learned about dynamic content and database oriented design at his job. Wil pushed and prodded at scripting languages and datatable layout. Wil discovered a lot about what makes a content managed web site tick. Wil made it sit up and beg. Wil also worked alongside a world class web designer. Wil learned about grids and colours and layout. Wil learned how important proper navigation and content and presentation was. Wil built some excellent web sites for very important people.
Wil joined Visual Lizard Inc in 2005. Wil learned about open source software. Wil learned MySQL and PHP. Wil discovered many smart people working with the same tools, and learned a lot from them. Wil wrangled code, working alongside already brilliant Visual Lizard staff to improve Catalyst, their content management system.
Wil works with Visual Lizard to build web sites. Wil gets paid, and buys comic books and video games.
Lucky Wil!
Photos of the Lizards hard at work
I’ve updated my Flickr account with a couple pictures I snapped yesterday. We were hunkered down at the board room table, downing caffeinated beverages while slamming out some code. :)
You can click here to see all my Visual Lizard related photos. Feel free to leave us a comment... we might even reply, assuming you can pry us away from our work! :P
Update: During one of our late night work sessions last week, we captured some wicked pictures of the weather outside the office. See below:
You can see a few more shots at my flickr page as well - http://www.flickr.com/photos/julianmoffatt/.
