WHO AM I?  WHAT AM I DOING HERE?

My name, as you may have guessed, is Mark Ehrman.
I'm a resident of Iowa City, Iowa and the owner of University Professional Painting.

My company specializes in property management maintenance painting -
a good market in a rental intensive college town like Iowa City.
We've painted thousands of apartments since our founding in 1991.
I've had hundreds of full and part-time subcontractors work for me over the past decade.

I could do this job in my sleep.

But as a friend of mine has put it, "Painting is a harsh mistress".
Her once charming ways have grown tiresome, and her beauty has begun to fade.

I've found a new love. A true love.
I've fallen for her.

Madly. Deeply. Truly.

Her name?


WEB DESIGN & INTERNET DEVELOPMENT!


Oh, yes. I know. I've heard it all before...

I'm a very strange guy.

No one I know owns any of Edward Tufte's books,
(they haven't even heard the name!).
When I talk to people about this wonderful thing called Information Architecture
they all get the same fixed expression on their faces.
A blank, polite sort of look.

They don't get it. They just don't understand.

What's wrong with them?!



But seriously now...
 I am very enthusiastic about this field (as if you hadn't noticed)!
I'm so enthusiastic that I'm leaving my painting business behind
and beginning a brand new career in web development.

So feel free to browse around here.
Check out my resume and have a look at my portfolio.
See what I've done. Imagine what I can do.

Contact me. Hire me.

Let's get to work!
