Radu Micu

I am a Mathematics and Computer-Science graduate living in the most beautiful city in the world Brasov, Romania. I have { intval(date(“Y”)) – 1983 } years and I plan to live at least 1000 years.

I define, develop and implement new systems, processes and tools on/with different systems/platforms at my current workplace. On my free time I try to learn more about web technologies and all it’s inner workings. I am a wannabe web developer (the freakish mix between a designer and a developer), wannabe user experience guy and a freak for usability.

Personal Skills

• Web strategy. Market research, social media, user behavior, communication
• Web design. User experience, information architecture, usability, typography, accessibility
• Web development. PHP, MySQL, Javascript, and bits & pieces from all the rest

Personal projects

I try to publish many of them here on my blog but never got the time to do so in a organized manner. My sandbox of tools/tests/implementations/scripts and so on can be found on my playground site. And lots of tips and tricks here on my blog.

In the same time I develop energy consuming apps I have a green soul that materialized in an non-profit organization called 34Life – Tree For Life, where with some of my friends we are trying to give back to our Planet it’s green color by planting trees and organizing ECO Green projects.

I enjoy besides work

• Playing computer games like any other geek (TF2, CODMW2, WAR3 …)
• Photography – Panoramic, Macro, Flowers and Plantsa
• Outdoors, skiing, hiking, camping
• Reading about WW2 weapons (don’t ask)
• Listening to good music

Social channels

I try as much as I can to keep my blog clean and I often use different social networks or web tools like Tumblr, Twitter, Deviantart and so on to post specific articles and web related topics. So I use Tumblr to post photos, videos or short quotations that I like when I surf the web, Twitter for fast communications and fun, Facebook to keep track to all my 34Life members and supporters, Deviantart and Flickr to keep my personal photo-folio, Youtube and Vimeo with all my favorites videos and so on … On the right side you can see all my profiles on different networks.
