Hello World!

My name is Chris Castiglione and I’m a web developer with experience creating usable, accessible websites.

I graduated from James Madison University where I studied Music and Media Arts and Design. Until this year I was at the development firm Omnistudio in Washington, DC where I developed websites for non-profit organizations in the district and around the world.

Currently, I’m a graduate student involved in the New Media M.A. at the Universiteit van Amsterdam. I’m interested in issues surrounding open source and the network culture.  My Gmail address is “castig@”.
