Chase Doak is a fourth-year senior (okay, technically a junior) at the University of Montana studying photojournalism and media arts. He is also in his fourth year as a programmer at Spectral Fusion Designs. He is a native of Billings, MT and has attended UM since his graduation from Billings Senior High in 2004. He is a sports fan (ya think?), especially football (American), in which "his teams" are the Denver Broncos (oh, grow up), Purdue Boilermakers, Carroll Saints (GO SAINTS!), and, of course, Montana Grizzlies (GO GRIZ!). He is also a musician (of sorts), playing, or at least attempting to play, the guitar and composing computer music with Digital Performer and FL Studio. He is clearly not a fan of grammar rules regarding punctuation and/or sentence length.

Chase specializes in programming in Adobe Coldfusion, as well as development of Adobe Flex applications and Actionscript programming, and Javascript/AJAX programming. He has experience developing in Flash, ASP, and higher level languages such as C, C++, and Java. He also specializes in photographic processing in Adobe Photoshop as part of his studies in photojournalism and photography in general, and has some design experience as well.
