About

Hello, my name is Johnnier (Johnny). I’m a web designer / front-end developer who creates simple and effective designs that take into account usability. I strive to create intuitive designs that can be rapidly developed into a user interface that takes into account the latest techniques in HTML 5, CSS, and jQuery. In 2004 I created Dilan Design, LLC., a freelance design firm based in West Palm Beach, FL.

I take into consideration the latest web standards and technologies in every project I do. I have always been a natural problem solver and strive to find solutions to problems when others can’t seem to find them. For over 12 years, I have worked in the fields of website, interface, graphic and multimedia design.

MARTIAL ART STUDIES

Kendo / Batto Do

In 2010, I began studying a Japanese martial art called Kendo, which I currently hold the rank of Sandan (3rd degree black belt). In 2014, I began studying another sword art called Batto do, the art of cutting with a Japanese blade. If you’re interested in finding out more about all these disciplines please visit Toku Bu Kan
