About Ross Interactive

A fresh approach creating websites with an emphasis on details and usability.

Formally trained as a traditional graphic designer, around 1998 I became very interested in web and interactive design. Turning my knowledge of print design around to the web early on has given me years of experience designing and developing websites the right way.

I was an early adopter of CSS and Web Standards—check my code, it’s as clean as it gets. This, as well as, strong typography, adhering to a grid, and caring for small details are what make my work stand out.
