I began coding at the age of seven. No kidding. My mother bought a Commodore 64 (remember those?) and hooked it up to our TV - which back then had three channels and rabbit-ears. My younger sister and I would spend untold hours following the programming in the little book, meticulously typing in DOS commands to make it tweet like a bird for 10 seconds. I loved it.
My mother was always building computers. Putting pieces together like a puzzle, then booting up and typing in the commands necessary to put in the OS. I was fascinated by it all. In school, I took all the computer classes I could possibly take. I remember in high school, I got in trouble because I kept skipping my Computer Science class. No - not because I was bad at it, but because I inhaled programming. I caught on so fast, my own teacher couldn’t keep up with me. So while he was teaching everyone else, I’d go do my own thing until everyone else had caught up with me.

I am a perfectionist when it comes to both my coding and design. Not only am I a stickler for web standards, accessibility and usability, but I also hold myself to a higher standard - I always try to outdo myself with each project I am brought into. I always believe I can do better - and I love a challenge.
