About

My name is Scott Lewis. I am an Enterprise Content Management System developer in Richmond, Virginia, USA. My background is in graphic design, though I do very little design these days. I began toying with web programming in 1996 but did not really start digging in until 1998 or so. In 2001 I switched to programming full time.

In addition to splitting most of my spare time between the SkyBlueCanvas and WYMeditor open source projects, I take on the occasional freelance project and write about web development topics including PHP, JavaScript, jQuery and CSS.

I also have a passion for foreign cultures and languages. I speak French (though not as well as I would like) and a tiny bit of Russian and an even tinier bit of German and Spanish. I enjoy meeting people from cultures around the world and learning about their language, lifestyle and cuisine. SkyBlueCanvas has been a wonderful project in this respect because I have met people from at least a dozen countries including Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Belgium, Sweden, France, England, Scotland (the home of my ancestors), Ireland, Poland, Brazil and Turkey.
