¡Hola!
I’m Juan Pablo (JP) Gomez, a New York City-based web designer and CSS developer
About JP
I grew up in Tepa, Jalisco, México. We make the best tacos al pastor and our red-clay soil grows the best agave azul. Tequila and tacos, name a better combo!
I moved to NYC in the spring of 1999. The tequila and the tacos where not as good but I did find the love of my life here. Did Make friends from all over the world. Did get to work in every neighborhood from Tribeca (stocker) to Soho (busser) to the Upper East Side (Room Service) to Wall Street (Chocolate Store Assistant Manager) to Madison Square Park (Designer) to Harlem (Designer) to Midtown (UX Designer) to my current home in the Heights (Web Designer, Email Designer/Developer, Freelancer, Portfolio Assessor, Mentor) where I’m raising two beautiful daughters.
About Jupago
I’m a designer, mostly for the web. The Design part is pretty straightforward: Make it, let it go, put it through a feedback loop, get better, make more.
The Web part is a bit more complicated. Things change fast and it is as much fun as it is challenging, and yes! if you are a designer and your outputs end up as pixels on a screen then yes! speaking/writing the language of those pixels will make you a better designer. Be it color, be it layouts, be it fonts, be it interactions.
Why Juago?
Don’t fact check me, but somewhere on earth, a Juan Gomez was just born from the time you started reading this, so I shortened it to Juan Pablo Gomez. I was very proud of how clever it was until I realized it is a pretty common thing to do and.
