Graphic Designer

I learned the basics of print/ web design at an IT specialty high school, working from the age of 16 as a freelance graphic designer. While getting my Bachelors in Religion with a minor in Christian Counseling, I worked with multimedia design agencies to produce print and web marketing materials. My love-affair with WordPress began through trial and error — and that’s the way I’ve continued to learn. In the end, my formal education has nothing to do with my career of choice.

My Passions:

I’m driven by the desire for excellence, and don’t think it can be achieved without a teachable attitude. I’m fascinated by the connectedness of our current culture, and am constantly looking for ways to get past the noise of media to reach a target audience. I’m also passionate about great music, my husband, my hedgehog (#BowserTheHedgehog), and the reality that there should never be two spaces in-between sentences. Ever.

I worked in higher education 10+ years in communication/web management after studying physics, math and mass comm in undergrad. My web marketing, content strategy, and social media policy development experience continues in as web marketing coordinator at Ram Jack Systems Distribution. My web training was all self-taught or on – the – job training.

My Passions:

I love using the scientific method to troubleshoot technology problems. My passion is helping find ways to communicate with various groups, working through and past biases or preconceived ideas.

I have fur babies who are spoiled beyond belief. Most of my closest friendships began as peers I communicated with via Twitter and met IRL at HighEdWeb.

I pretty much always look like I'm half-laughing, half-judging. I am, btw.

Director of Digital Communications

Mostly self taught, highly inquisitive, driven to break stuff and figure out how to fix it better. Empowering web users to be brilliant since 1994. Dog mom.

I’ve got a degree in Business Administration with a minor in Management Information Systems from Southern Arkansas University and am almost finished with a Master’s of Science in Information Quality from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.

My Passions:

  • Accessibility, which to me means not only making the tool usable by everyone, but also making it available to everyone.
  • The awesome power of shared knowledge.
  • Truth.
  • Redefining success by using data to blow the doors off conventional thinking.
