A bit about me

Simple Web, Print & Media Design. VerticalSoul is owned and run by me, Joel Barnard.

VerticalSoul thrives on a passion to design. To create and express ones self through some shape or form. Whether its a Simple Website for an artist or a Complex Database for a Business, its a chance to help develop a good idea! So thats what I do in the evenings and on weekends, during the week, I work for a manufacturing company in San Bernardino, where I design ads and brochures and maintain their network.

I was born in Zimbabwe Africa and moved to Southern California in 2000 where I currently live and work as a Designer/IT in the day and a Designer/Developer at night. Yes, I used to have wild animals in my backyard as a child and no, not everyone in Africa is black and lives in a straw hut! It was a really cool place to grow up but I certainly do not take the wonderful country I am now a Citizen of for granted. If you ever get the chance to travel to Africa, please do it, it truly is a fantasy land filled with adventure and beauty.

My Hobby

Seeing how it takes before I get to see the same webcomic twice in one sitting by constantly hitting the random button on xkcd.com.
