This site is my personal site. Programming and graphics are my hobby, and as such, it is in a perpetual state of development. However, due to school and work, it often goes unattended. In fact, I registered it *last* September (2007), and the design version 1.0 wasn't finished until this June (2008).

Well, what can I say about myself? I'm a programmer, Linux user, graphic artist, and student from Madison, Wisconsin. I enjoy anime and kung-fu movies, and listen to all forms of music. My current favorite band is A Touch of Class, and my favorite song by them is "I'm in Heaven (When I Kiss You)". I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I'm also a bit of a pop-culture whore. When I go through the music section at Best Buy, I find myself knowing of at least half of the artists in any given section, aside from International and Country.

My programming language of choice is perl, mainly because I know it the best, but I also know PHP, and JavaScript, and can do markup in XHTML and CSS. My graphic art is done primarily in the GIMP and Blender 3D, and I'm hoping one day to be able to afford Maya.

I'm currently involved in a very hushed up translation of a Japanese game, and we are always looking for translators. If you speak Japanese well, and perhaps have any experience with translating other things, please drop me an email, or talk to me on MSN or AIM.

If you want to contact me, the following methods are the best:

You could also send me a message on Rizon... My username is risako =p
