About Me

Whether your brand needs to be designed & developed from scratch, rebranded, or you need assistance planning and structuring your website, I can help.

I'm Nick Budidharma - primarily a web developer, graphics designer, and computer consultant enjoying life on Hilton Head Island. I specialize in creating engaging websites, intelligent interfaces, and memorable brand identities. In addition to those services, I am a server administrator and have some programming experience in C++ and Java.


On The Subject of Me

I'm a 17 year old awesome asian, currently in my senior year of high school at Hilton Head High.


I love the make things, and my passion for the web, information technology, and gaming has made way for a very broad skill set. My initial interest in web development stemmed from some friends and I wanting to make a clan website for a game we played. Years later, I spend most of my time immersed in web, using HTML, CSS, Javascript, and PHP. My experience in graphics design started from from my work in web design; I use Photoshop and Illustrator primarily. Most if not all of my software development experience in Java and C++ has been game-related as well.


Outside of the web, I spend a lot of time doing freelance computer consulting. My experience with computers is mostly self-taught and helped me land my first job at the age of 14 with User Friendly HHI. During my time at User Friendly, I found a new interest: server administration. I loved how much more control you had over any deployment enviroment when using a server. Now, all websites I run are located on virtual or dedicated servers, running a linux distro (debian preferred). I also run a variety of virtual and dedicated servers for other purposes (git, voip, game servers, etc).


When I'm not making things, you can find me eating sushi, hanging with friends, listening to music (via Grooveshark), trading stocks, gaming, making videos, golfing, and managing my other geeky ventures. Oh, and my friends often call me Budi, my last name shortened, which I also use as my online alias.

TL;DR In Short

Nick is... asian a web developer, graphics designer, computer consultant, server admin, programmer, tech enthusiast, filmographer, competitive gamer, stock trader, golfer, and student.

Gaming

Nick "budi" Budidharma

I am a semi-experienced competitive PC gamer currently playing Starcraft II and Counter-Strike: Source. I started playing competitive games at the age of 8, starting with Starcraft: Brood War and Warcraft III/DoTA. I eventually switched to focusing on FPS games like Counter-Strike 1.6 and Source, then picked up RTS again with the release of Starcraft II. I didn't start to compete until last year (2010), where I entered various open level tournaments with varying success. This year I've been focusing more on practicing and improving than competing, and have plans to compete more throughout 2012. I am currently competing in eSports Entertainment Association (ESEA), Season 10, and play Counter-Strike: Source for XPIRE Gaming, and play Starcraft II for Area51 Gaming.


Live Stream Offline

I stream Starcraft II matches/custom games and Minecraft episodes on my Twitch TV channel when possible. I would love to venture into streaming my FPS games but I don't have enough bandwidth and end up with unplayable lag. I hope to change that soon though. If you missed a stream, you can view my recent broadcasts, or head over to my YouTube channel where I upload videos from my stream as well as clips from other games I don't stream.
