I truly hope that you enjoy my web site. It has taken on many changes over the years and yet again has a newer look. As I learn new technology I use this site as my "play pen". I am a freelance web developer with a strong background in PHP and mySql programming. Most of the sites that I develop are based on a home-grown CMS that I developed. This allows my customers to update their own sites from any web enabled browser, from anywhere in the world! How cool is that?

I believe that a web site should be dynamic, easy to navigate and informative, not to mention pleasing to the eye. I worked around the original "internet" as it was being developed by the government back in the mid 1980's and have been involved in some form or fashion ever since. I was so interested in graphic design and web development that a few years ago I got a degree in it. Many hours of programming have passed since then and here I am today, armed with the knowledge of what it takes to put together a site that is right for my customers. Check out some of the sites that I have developed and still web master for by clicking on the "web" tab at the top.

I was born in Lubbock, Texas on a cold snowy day in February of 1961. A lot of water has gone under the proverbial bridge since then. During my life, I have had a number of professions. I have worked as a welder, a steam fitter, an electronics technician, a cook in the Army, a manufacturers representative and a Sales Manager for a pipe valve & fitting wholesaler.

I feel that everything that I have done in my life has taken me to where I am today. The "life" experience that I have gained makes me perfect for designing web sites. Why, you might ask? Because I can relate to most any situation. Whether its sales & marketing, technical, or commercial & industrial. I have real time experience that is beneficial to any company wanting to gain a web presence.

I gained most of my experience with computers and electronics from just "messing around". I attended Texas State Technical College in Amarillo, Texas after graduating from high school in Pampa, Texas. I recently graduated from New Mexico State University with an Associate of Science degree in Digital Graphics Technology. My adventure in post-secondary education started out as a hobby. I began taking classes in graphics design, web technology and video & animation in 2001 just because I enjoyed the field. Since I work for NMSU as the supervisor of the Heating Distribution System, it was easy for me to go to class.

Boy, how the time fly's! I have not pursued a career in graphic design yet. For now, I prefer to continue to gain experience doing freelance work and maybe someday . . . well, to be continued.
