About me

Humans discovered fire, but the wheel hadn't been nvented yet, and then I was born.

But seriously, my first computer was a Tandy Color 2. Not the fancy one with a hard drive or monitor, mine was the giant keyboard you plugged into your TV and you had to save your code to floppy disks. I taught myself some Basic before it became the first computer programming class available in my high school. Since then, I've taught myself how to code new game items for a private Ultima Online server and eventually stumbled into HTML while role playing with creative writing on message boards.

When the opportunity to change careers arrived, I enrolled at NAIT to get my DMIT - Web Design and Development degree.

I pride myself on knowing where to look, and learn from credible sources when I don't know the answers to something. I have become the person that I needed when I was growing up. I am a resource, a teacher, and I like connecting people with their needs.

I enjoy coding - HTML5, CSS3 Sass, PHP, SQL, Codeigniter, React & JavaScript. I love to see what they can do and find creative ways to use them. Learning is my passion!
