Hello, my name is Jon Hagood, currently based in Austin/Round Rock Tx. My passion for design and code began about 6 years ago. Naturally, I hand-code my designs myself, using clean and valid XHTML & CSS with a particular attention to cross-browser compatibility.

Jon is a Web Designer based in the Austin area.
Started working on computers at a very young age, and by the time I was 21 I built my own computer from scratch. After doing that I found it was a very big accomplishment, and moved forward from there. I got into designing webpages at an even younger age which started off from a small company called Expage.com The problem with doing a web site with them is they limit the amount of code/photos/scripts you can use. After becoming more experienced in design/production I decided to go to school and got my degree in computer science which gave me the basics, and would help be succeed in the web industry.
I have now been working and doing designs, and production a little over 4 years and this is why I decided to build an online portfolio. If you have any questions or comments please feel free reach me through email on the contact page or you can also find me on Facebook.
Being a fan of the beach, I wanted to do a design that had the grunge beach look to it. The main photo in the pic was actually taken by me at a friends beach house a few years back! This will always be one of my favorite designs.
Gomez Flooring inc. Is one of my favorite designs, I wanted to go out on a limb, and think that the final look for this company came out very well. They are one of the biggest flooring companies in San Antonio TX.
Just Trees is a family owned company that has been around since 1988. They strive in the tree cutting industry to do there best and also build credibility through out the austin area. Design I did was based off of their current business cards.
