I currently hold a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology from Texas A&M University; a Master of Arts degree in the social sciences from the University of Chicago; and a Master of Science degree in anthropology from Purdue University. The broad range of training I have received makes me sensitive to the way that both users and owners interact with the websites I design.

In addition to this academic training, I am also a long-time denizen of the Internet (and BBSes before that); have held positions in technical support; and long ago completed the CompTIA A+ certification. So I have both grown with the web and seen it grow, and when I create I do so with this history in mind.
