I am ambitious, driven, and constantly seeking to change, improve, and progress things. I despise being bored, both professionally and at home, and am always driven to do more, whatever that may be. I’ve never had a job that wasn’t in the internet design and development realm. Even in the early 90′s, I spent my summers either interning or working for $5.25 an hour as a web developer or IT administrator. I did work at Wendy’s for 2 weeks once in 10th grade.
I have a Bachelors degree is Psychology and Creative Writing, which I obtained while working full time as a designer and web developer. I am asked why I didn’t get a Computer Science of Design degree; I was already working and establishing a good career in web development and design, and wanted to get a degree that augmented my other passion, Clinical Psychology and Writing.
