About

I am Javier Adan Rico, I design web sites and other things. I have a 2 year old dog named Yuki who takes up most of my time so you’ll see a lot of her here. I am a tech geek and I love shiny new toys. House, electronic and techno music have been a passion of mine. Both listening and creating. I travel a lot and therefore must keep those on record as well. Photography is a hobby and I love to play with imagery.

My given or “birth” name is Javier Adan Mendoza Rico.! I was born in the state of of Washington. Although I spent most of my childhood in Seattle and Spokane, I completed high school Southern California. After high school, I opted to enroll currently enrolled at a local university in Orange County, California. I was extremely fortunate to grow up bilingual in Spanish and learned English. Later at community college, I took several Japanese language classes and my passion for it continues to grow.

I have two associates’ degrees: General Education AA and Digital Media design AA from Irvine Valley College. At the moment, I’m earning my B.A. in Communications: Advertising with a minor in Japanese. I freelance from time to time. Though my niche is mostly web, occassionally I dabble in photography, and I love to get creative with graphic print designing or print advertisements. Ultimately, I would like be the Art Director to determine the brand look for a major company.
