About

I Love Shakes Hello, I'm Ara Abcarians and I'm a 23-year-old Interactive Media Design graduate from The Art Institute of California, Los Angeles. I'm intrigued by all forms of art, especially web design and interactive media. I love all things related to web design but am particularly passionate about Web Standards, CSS, XHTML, JavaScript, ActionScript, Interface Design, and Branding.

Outside of design I enjoy basketball, boxing, MMA, music, breakdancing, food, and just about anything competitive. I believe there is plenty of time to sleep when I'm dead, so while I'm awake I like to stay productive.
