I started my first website when I was 15 after a friend showed me how some simple code could alter a page we see on the Internet. At that time, the Internet was still pretty new to me and websites were things I used as tools to help with school reports and papers. After a few minutes of a “show and tell” I decided this was the coolest thing ever. He left me with a book that talked about basic HTML and told me about a few sites where I could create my own webpage for free. My first webpage was on a site hosted by Tripod.com and Geocities.com and I just did some simple text and background images with flashing animated gifs. What a cool thing this website building was.

Fourteen years later I am still working on websites and I still feel this is the coolest thing next to skydiving. Building websites has been a hobby of mine since I was young and in the last 8 years, I have taken it as profession and love.
