Background

About Gary Barnes

Creative and Technology Director with a focus on driving innovation and growth through the convergence of new technologies with an eye for high-quality design. I am a versatile problem-solver, with a background in both creative and technical fields, and a passion for travel and cross-cultural convergence. My work includes various full-stack web development projects (front and backend, with proficiency in common tools such as Wordpress/Elementor, and less common solutions such as Python/Flask). My experience as a professional photographer underscores my knowledge of Lightroom and Photoshop, with a keen eye for detail and high-quality artistic merit. Alongside this, a lifetime of experience with technology has supported my roles as a Systems Admin and Systems Architect, utilizing cutting-edge tools to deliver streamlined results on both a team and organization level. My proficiency in a wide range of fields allows me to deliver exceptional results for clients and employers alike, and I am always looking for new challenges and opportunities to push the boundaries of what is possible. My ability to adapt and problem-solve in the context of limited time and resources lends itself to my role as someone who can "figure it out," whether that involves a simple Google search, or designing an entire new system to accomplish a task. And with ample experience in both the creative arts and data-driven technology, I can bridge the gap between those two worlds, contributing knowledge and insight in the process.
