Phil Hoyt
My name is Phil Hoyt, I’m a web developer, and I like to create cool things. Ever since I was a child I have had a DIY attitude towards life, plucking away at my keyboard late into the nights until the caffeine wore off. Now I develop professional creative and technical solutions with user experience always in the forefront.
