About Pete
My name is Pete Ellison. I live in Portland, OR, and I wear many hats. I'm a web designer/programmer, illustrator, multimedia mogul and all-around nice fella to work with. Over the past 5 years I've designed websites for a number of high-profile Real Estate projects in the NW area, and provided interactive design, motion and programming expertise for some of the Northwest's top graphic designers.
I've also been a fixture in the local Portland party scene creating some memorable flyers featuring eye-catching illustrations.
When I'm not working on the visual side of things, I'm DJ-ing, writing songs that teenagers are obsessed with, and producing music for my underground dance record label Disko Warp.
I'm currently available and scheduling projects, so let's get in touch!

Design Philosophy
I believe even the most 'mundane' of web-based experiences can be made enjoyable with the right look & feel - the internet should be easy & fun! I aim to create interactive experiences that are intuitive, easy to maintain, and create lasting, memorable impressions on your users.
