Welcome to CJM Designs.

Hello and welcome to the personal website of Carol Matsumura. This is all about what I do, what I've done, and where I'd like to go.

My passion is creating websites with clean layouts that focus on the benefits of designing with web standards. I've been programming computers since 1986 and working on the web for over a decade. Needless to say, I spend far too much time sitting in front of my computer. Just ask my family.

My other passion is photography. Vacations, family, school, and nature are all potential subjects. I like to display my photos through digital scrapbook layouts that are suitable for sharing and printing.

Take a look around, view my portfolio, and find out about hiring me to create a website for you. Please note that you must register to view my photos and layouts.

"Most (97%) of the leading websites around the world are failing to provide
the most basic accessibility standards for people with disabilities."
