Outside Ubuntu
Before Xubuntu, I worked with user support and the Rokymotion marketing team in the Amarok project for about two years from 2006 to 2008.
In 2010, I founded the Shimmer Project with Steve Dodier. The Shimmer Project is still contributing artwork for Xubuntu, but has since gathered much broader audience. Maintained projects include the Albatross, Bluebird and Greybird desktop suites and the "Shimmer" layout, extension and modification for gmusicbrowser.
I've also been working on some WordPress plugins.
