I started working my way up through various IT-related jobs starting in 2000.  Halfway through my Bachelor’s degree and several programming classes under my belt, I started developing websites on the side for a variety of businesses in Phoenix, Arizona referred by friends, family, acquaintances etc.  Customers included retail, healthcare, sole proprietors and law firms.  Seeing a niche for IT consulting for small and medium-sized businesses, I opened my own firm in mid 2006.  As the internet grew over the last decade, several of my customers started inquiring about generating business online.  I started working with ExpressionEngine in 2008, and have recently begun expanding my expertise into custom php, mysql & jquery.  I’m currently looking for subcontracting opportunities related to ExpressionEngine, and would like to reduce my time spent on the business & sales side.
