Bio: 

I was trained as an Electronics Technician in the US Navy. Working for Nextel in the 1990's I needed software for mobile site testing that just wasn't available, so I learned to write desktop software.

A natural extension was to be able to access and retrieve data from the web, and to make updates. I started using HTML, PHP, CSS, and MySQL to create web pages and sites. In 2009 I learned Drupal, and have been using it ever since when possible.

I've been living in Lexington, SC since 1997 with my family and two Boston Terriers.
