Hello
Sorry if i am bothering you with my proposal, i know that i am not American-based freelancer, i am European, but if time-zone difference is an issue for you, i can assure you that its not for me, since my time-zone is ahead of you and i dont mind working late in the night, when its your day time.
Also, i would like to offer my services since i am IT engineer by degree, and also own Web development and graphic design related LLC for 8 years, so i do have a lot of useful experience. So far, i usually had long-term jobs with Australian employer, under NDA, so most of my work is not allowed to be posted in my porfolio, but i can point you to some live links if you want to see what i was asked to do so far, cause it was always custom made work, by demand or PSD based.
Anyway, if you want, feel free to contact me and we can chat a bit about all this.
Best regards,
Stojan Vasic, IT engineer
Novi Sad, Serbia, Europe
