I am … and I do …
My name is Andreas Shabelnikov, a 26 years old interactive designer and photographer. Originally from Latvia, but now based in South of France. I have around 10 years of experience behind me, as far as I remember, I did my first web site, when I was 14 years old. Yeah, so, 12. Currently I work as a freelancer and run my small ad agency. My portfolio can be seen on andreasworks.com. When I have spare time, I update my inspirational blog on digitalanimate.com
