Cease and Desist

A particular company asked me to remove my portfolio from this website. The letter I received claimed that I had violated the Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement which I signed in 2007. I would like to make a few points about my integrity and the subject in general:

1. During my employment at the company in question, I was contacted to do work for one of their clients behind their backs. I declined the offer.
2. The agreement places no restrictions on information that has not already been published by the company. Everything in my portfolio had been previously published.
3. I have never done a personal project with a budget over $1000. If the company doesn’t want projects of that size, then such work isn’t competition.
4. Even after I left the company, I recommended them to potential clients. You can bet that I never will again.
