I was born in Evansville, Indiana and raised in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
Since then I have lived all over the United States and Western Europe including cities
in Florida, Colorado, Washington State, France, the UK and Sweden.
I wrote my first computer program (a game written in Atari Basic) when I was 10.
After that I was hooked. I had my own BBS running at 14 and nearly died of excitement
when the world wide web was born in 1992.
Over the years I've sought to master everything web-related including information
architecture, technical writing, and of course all aspects of LAMP web development.
I believe strongly in higher education and certification.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in European Cultural Studies from the
American University of Paris
and a Master of Science degree in Electronic Publishing from City University
in London.
As well as academic degrees I also have a number of technical certifications.
I am a Microsoft Certified Professional,
a Zend Certified Engineer,
and a Linux Certified Professional as well.
I am currently working towards my MySQL Certfied Developer certification as well.
Please see my CV for more details.
