Sam Carne • Freelance Web Developer

Making the web available to all. one site at a time

Greetings, internet users!

My name is Sam Carne and I am a freelance web developer. I would love to help any business make a beautiful site to help build brands and obtain more customers.

Born in Lansing, Michigan and raised in Okemos, I have been doing web development for over 10 years. I started learning HTML when I was 15 and was offered a web development internship on my 16th birthday. I had my first paying job lined up before I graduated high school in 2011.

I have worked on various projects so far in my career, including those for small and large businesses, law firms, college departments, and government. A piece of me goes into every web project I am a part of. When I hand over a piece of work for a client, I will always make sure it is done to the best of my abilities.

I believe in the power of the web and how it brings people together. Therefore, I have taken it upon myself to make the web available to all, one site at a time.

Let me tell you about myself...

I was 15 when I started to learn HTML.

A part of and supporter of the LGBTQIA community (I'm asexual)

Love to play the 00s station on Apple Music

I went to a class in high school called "Programming, Databases, & Website Development" at a local career center. The instructor helped me to obtain my first paid development job at 18

I watch a lot of videos on YouTube, especially Roomie Official ("It's a lil' bit Pitchy") and Alonzo Lerone ("Get a dictionary!")

I started writing lyrics and poems when I was 16

Member of NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness)

Mostly on Apple devices. I don't hate Windows; I hate Windows 8

I'm always looking for the next coding trends, including frameworks, tools, and libraries

My favorite IDEs is Nova on a Mac and Atom on Windows

I love listening to the TWiT network, especially "The Tech Guy" and "iOS Today" with Leo Laporte

I was mostly self taught. I had classes, but I gained the most knowledge from hands-on projects and work experience
