Robert Petro's Work

robert petro's head

I am first and foremost a husband and father. However, after that I do my best to be a designer. More specifically I work as the creative director for a web company called MACH 9. I am very interested in both design and technology. A gadget freak from childhood I am slowly working at trying to figure out how I can make a difference in today's technology driven world. I am twenty-six years old and don't have it figured out yet. I'm always looking to improve myself through education and bicep curls. I enjoy sports but reject all neanderthal stereotypes.

I can create things on a computer. I can hand code HTML, CSS and ActionScript. I can create graphics in both Photoshop and Illustrator but prefer the former. Look HERE. I can also organize team efforts and criticise others work more harshly than my own. I can appreciate art and beauty and hope to one day find time to create some.
