Gabriel's self apointed specialty is "imagining the future." He exudes user interface design expertise and online marketing savvy as Benton Consultings's lead "front-end" technician. Facilitating and implementing web designs that achieve user experience objectives is what he does. Although substantially creative - coming from a studio art background - Gabriel relies on sound design techniques and proven use flows as he realizes the web is more about effective communication than often distracting bells and whistles.

Gabriel has grown up with the web site design world from its first boom in 1995. He launched his career shortly thereafter with a streaming audio startup where he built countless websites on his way to eventually becoming the primary user interface designer, building product logos and user interface designs for their whole lineup of products.

Gabriel's hobbies include taking pictures (most of which end up on Flickr), walking his dog Kuma in the park at night, and maintaining his top 10 Google ranking for "Gabriel" (out of over 82.9 million other "Gabriel" results out there).
