About Me
I'm a stay at home mom to two boys, one 3.5 and one almost a year. I've lived in the Coulee Region since moving out here to go to UWL right after getting married in 1995. We originally just came here for school, but my husband found a job here and we ended up staying. I really like the area, and I think it will be a great place to raise our kids.
I've been online since using BBSs back in the 80s and 90s and found the internet around 1993. It wasn't long after that I got into building websites for fun, though I never did much with it until recently. In 2005, I found a CMS called Drupal that is just awesome. Using a CMS is 100 times better than doing sites from scratch. I've used it on a bunch of hobby sites as well as a little bit of freelance work here and there. My kids keep me pretty busy so freelance is very part time. Once they're older, I hope to be able to work from home building Drupal sites.
My Interests
My main hobbies are computers and photography. I've been using computers since I was a teenager in the '80s and have been fascinated by the web since I first stumbled on it around 1994. I've putzed with web design since 1997ish but only got really serious about it a couple years ago when I was pregnant with my son and wanted to make a family page. Since then, I've been actively learning and hope to make a business of it some day.I also really love photography, though I don't have a lot of time for it between chasing a toddler and working on sites. I started doing mostly nature but got interested in children's photography when my son was born. Most of the photos I do are of my son or friends' kids these days. I had toyed with the idea of making a business out of photography but I decided I really want to keep it a hobby.
