Marcus Neto, Blue Fish Design Studio

Hi. My name is Marcus and I am addicted to coffee. Preferably the kind that would normally give a horse a heart attack. I enjoy photography. I like designing pretty things (sorry all designers have to put that in their bio). And I currently reside in Daphne, Alabama (near Mobile on the Gulf Coast, USA).

I am the founder of Blue Fish Design Studio. I also co-founded Show-ee.com a showcase site for the ExpressionEngine community and founded EETemplates.com a commercial template site for ExpressionEngine.

I am currently working as the Product Evangelist for ExpressionEngine and Director of Business Development for EllisLab. After 4+ years of using and promoting EE I got an email from Les (CEO of EllisLab) asking if I was interested in working for EllisLab. It was one of the best decisions I have made in my life. If you have any questions about ExpressionEngine or how I built the sites that are in the portfolio don't hesitate to contact me. I would love to share my knowledge.

I've done some writing for Web Designer Depot comparing ExpressionEngine and Wordpress(Apples and Oranges).

I am originally from the Washington DC area where I consulted to various alphabet agencies on Development Best Practices using RUP and Automated and Performance Testing. I use to do some speaking on that topic at large international conferences but that was a long time ago... I would love to do some more speaking though so if you are looking for someone to talk at your conference I'm your guy.

Washington DC is also where I met my wonderful wife and where 2 out of 3 of my sons were born.

My likes are photography, being on or near the water, the laughter of my family and ice cream bacon.

I love my job. Got a question about a project or just want to shoot the breeze? Drop me a line. I don't bite.
