Hi, I'm Patrick Morgan

I currently live in Savannah, GA and am a Full Stack Web Developer looking for my next great adventure in development. I am a graduate of Armstrong State University in Savannah with a Bachelors Degree in Computer Science on the software track of study. I am knowledgeable in HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, MySQL, the LAMP Stack, and the Smarty templating engine. My ambition is Web Development, bringing both my and others' ideas to fruition in an easy, elegant, and fun presentation. I also love to learn about new web techologies to create the best and most up to date web presentations I can.

In my spare time, I am a big fan of classic television, especially game shows. One of my websites, Game Show Favorites, is devoted to the genre. I also maintain an extensive collection of game show episodes, with my collection numbering over 20,000 episodes in size! My current big hobby is getting everything transferred to a digital format.

I also enjoy learning about magic, specifically with cards. Some of the people that have had a big influence on the magic I enjoy are Bill Malone, Tom Mullica, Doc Eason, Paul Daniels, and Daryl Eason. If you ever get an opportunity to check out their work, be sure you don't miss out!

To keep physically active, I also do martial arts. I have been training in taekwondo since I was 11 years old and am a 4th Degree Black Belt with the Global Traditional Martial Arts organization in the GShim style of Taekwondo. I also have a passion for teaching and giving back to the next generation of martial artists and have been instructing others for many years. Please do not ask me if I can break a brick or do a backflip, because it should go without saying that I can do both. ;)
