Hi, I'm Gordon Brander

I'm Gordon Brander, a web professional living in the beautiful state of Colorado. I build interesting things at Crowd Favorite using the web standards trinity—XHTML, CSS and Javascript.

I believe the web should be a friendly, simple, honest, engaging and accessible place, and I'm helping make it that way, one site at a time.

• Designing things both beautiful and functional
• Semantic XHTML and Microformats
• CSS
• Javascript and AJAX (especially when flavored with jQuery, Mootools or Prototype)
• Wordpress (my best friend), Drupal (my big cousin) and Textpattern (my old pal)

I've done work in a variety of climes, from working with local businesses, to building my very own open-source CSS framework. Curious? See my work →

Gordon is an excellent web designer. He is committed to standards based, accessible and semantic code. His work is always well thought-out and he's continually learning and improving his skills.

Gordon is a detail oriented and self-disciplined worker. He has a lot of talent as a designer, and an incredible knowledge of HTML and CSS. He produces bomb-proof code, with user-centered designs. He optimizes all his work for fast load times on any connection.

Gordon helped get one of our new blogs up and running by installing Wordpress. Great work!

Gordon quickly wrote a slick, tidy WordPress plugin that did exactly what I wanted. He immediately understood what I needed, gave me clear and easy instructions, and suggested the best ways to use the plugin. He's a pleasure to work with, and I won't hesitate to call him again.
