About Me

Thank you.

For reading this page, I mean. You cared enough to click on "About Me," or hoped I would be interesting enough to read about, and for that I thank you.

I want to help you.

Chances are, the reason you landed on my site is because you need help. Maybe technology help, maybe help launching your business, or maybe you are looking for a fellow "momtrepreneur" to share your challenges and triumphs.

Yes, I can help you with those things.

And even if we're not a perfect fit, I sincerely want you to find the help you need. So I'll be happy to recommend other resources to you, people and products that might be able to give you something I can't.

I'm not a hard-sell kind of person; I'm really not interested in convincing you that you need to hire me or buy my products. If you are attracted to the services I provide, the advice I offer, or the words I write here, I trust that you'll let me know, when the time is right.

Who am I?

I'm a woman, an entrepreneur, a mother (my daughter and son are 7 and 4, respectively), a wife (I'm happily married to The Professor, a successful blogger in his own right), a homeowner (well, I still own less than the bank does, but I'm makin' the payments!), a voracious reader, a techology geek, an organic gardener, a bit of a food snob, and an animal person (currently two cats, considering The Dog Question).

I'm also curious, funny, smart, and empathetic. I don't want to whip your website and business into shape; I'd rather tune into your difficulties and offer some compassionate tips for you to help yourself.

Oh, did you want to know about my skills?

I've been building websites for 15 years, and I know more about HTML than most people have forgotten. When it comes to coding, my perfectionist streak serves me (and my clients) well.

I've been actively teaching technology classes for about 9 months. I love to connect with people on the phone -- it's a great way to use my whizbang technology skills to help folks who are overwhelmed by technolog, scared of doing it wrong but equally scared that they can't afford to hire someone to fix it. My compassionate teaching style lets them ask questions without fear, gives them much-needed support, and leaves them with a new feeling of empowerment.

Yes, that's really a picture of me. It's a self-portrait taken with my awesome underwater camera!

If you have any questions about my work or how I can help you, let's talk.
