Multiscreen web development
Today, there are so many different devices with different screen parameters; and it is important to accommodate all of the potential website users/clients. Therefore, when working on the websites, I try to incorporate such technologies as jQuery and PhoneGap. Support of HTML5 capabilities across the browsers is booming and it is always exciting to use new features of the CSS3. Below are some of the examples of the websites I developed and currently manage.

During the spring of 2013, I was helping our friend Leela Breithaupt to develop her personal website. This website will demonstrate her portfolio and let you enjoy the sound of Baroque Flute in the orchestra setting.
Ms. Breithaupt studied with Robert Willoughby at the Peabody Conservatory of Music where she received both undergraduate and master’s degrees, and with Karlheinz Zoeller in Berlin at the Hochschule der Künste where she received an Artist Diploma. Her Baroque flute playing has been largely influenced by Barthold Kuijken through her work with the Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra. -
