Media and Design Specialist

My undergraduate degree was in Business Administration from SUNY Oswego in 2000, with a minor in Economics and History. You can see that these fields aren’t necessarily conducive to what I do now. When my initial dreams of becoming a stock and market fund guru fell through, I feel back on my Plan B – my love of technology. I have an extensive background in support which has led me through many roles – server, email, domain, network, and application administration. I learned through various training courses, reading books, and on-the-job experience. Through my web development roles, I acquired a desire to work on design, thus leading me into my current role. I have taken some grad courses on the subject and hope to fulfill that degree in the not so distant future.

My Passions

I love being creative and having an outlet for that through my work. I enjoy helping others and working on projects together to achieve a common goal. My family are my number one priority. I enjoy the outdoors – hiking, biking, kayaking, camping. Also have a passion for cooking.
