Dylan Phelan

Web Developer &
Technical Lead

A photo of Dylan, taken in 2019 from a rooftop restaurant in Morocco. Pictured with medium length brown hair, slightly disheveled and parted on the viewer's right, is a wide-smiling, green-eye squinting Dylan wearing a black floral-print collared shirt. The image is neck-up, and the shirt is barely visible in the crop. A portrait style photo, the head makes way to slightly blurred shrubbery, offering a verdant contrast to the subject's peach-toned skin. Further in the photo's background we see the Old Town of Morocco stretch to the horizon, beige and reddish-brown buildings carrying our eyes to the gray-blue sky behind up.
