About Me
I'm Tamik Soziev, a New York based freelance web developer and designer. I passionately move pixels and lines of code to craft clean, responsive, and user-friendly websites. My current weapons of choice are PHP CodeIgniter, Ruby on Rails, jQuery, and MySQL. Being both an engineer and designer, I help clients bring their ideas into reality. Contact me today and I would love to hear about your business
