Hello, I'm Todd Baur.
I work in San Francisco as a front end designer and developer using CSS3/HTML5, Javascript, Ruby, and Java. I love working toward people and computers getting along with each other. I stash code and other kinds of craziness on github, keeping my memory fresh on codecademy, or stackoverflow, or you can find me attending or organizing events with CascadeSF. Otherwise I'm found gardening, bicycling, or being as social as possible.
This site is dedicated to my family for the years of support and tireless love, and peers for allowing me to give back to one of the most challenging careers in the world.
