First client - 1996 - David Burton - Commodity Hedging. http://www.schoolofgann.com/- who has now transformed his business to an online venture.-
I work only with clients I like and am selective, loyal, committed and passionate about all the work I do. Have parted with big clients who pay poorly, big companies that lie to their customers... no they don't lie, they tell me I have to and I won't.
Really enjoy working with my customers and helping them grow their business. Setup manage and deploy Win2k3 Servers, DNS Management, Email Management. Current customer base approximately 115 accounts, including various resellers but now working towards getting the servers managed by technical people so I can focus on what I do best.
Recently Upgraded our servers - Dual XEONS - 8gb of ram. Raid 5, daily backup - with 14 days history. Committed to providing great service and inspiration to clients.
Love graphics, colour, balance, asymmetrical design, curves, angles, pushing boundaries of technology and the occasional champagne/wine when working.
In my past was a certified kitchen and bathroom designer (award winning) was awarded a scholarship with Silicon Graphics doing VRML (1999)
When not at computer usually sleeping or looking after husband who is very understanding because since DNN, we eat alot more takeaway.
Very fastidious about my work, wish I could work faster, but now have 3 new resources - working part time.
If I didn't do what I was doing, I would probably be renovating houses, living on acreage with a huge satellite dish for connectivity, cooking more international recipes and .. oh yes.. excercising.... really don't do enough of that these days.
Family orientated, technology loving, and committed to providing the DNN community great skins for sale and free, and the business community, cutting edge designs and online marketing strategies.... Just wish I had a few more hours in my day.
