A little about myself...

My name is Logan Franken. I'm a 23-year-old web developer and designer from Santa Barbara, California. I've been tinkering around in Notepad creating webpages since I was 12, but I didn't get really serious about web design and development until I started taking computer science courses at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

I currently work at the UCSB Financial Aid Office, where I create designs for departmental websites as well as develop and maintain a custom-built content management system. As someone working for a state-funded institution, I am especially committed to creating clean, accessible designs with parsimonious markup and a clear separation between presentation and content.

But, hey, I'm not just a computer nerd! I'm also an avid gamer, sharp writer, and dedicated researcher. I spent three months studying the influence of organizational social factors on business process modeling within a government organization, and a case study from that project was published in a text book.
