Hi and welcome to my site!

I'm glad you could stop by and visit. Let me introduce myself. In the real world, I'm a soldier of many hats. I use the word "soldier" here because I've had to struggle for what I have. It's been a long fight, but the battle isn't over with yet.

I guess you could say my life really didn't start until a few years ago. It was then that things changed forever. I moved across country, and not being able to find work, I decided to try and start working at home. I was always good with the Internet, so I started off by "selling" Internet education. Since then, I have moved on to freelance web design, desktop publishing, writing services, and even a sitting service in my local area.

I am a self-taught Internet/web design mistress, but currently, I have been taking some on the side courses to better my skills. I had about three years of programming in college before I dropped out of school to pursue my black belt in Isshinryu karate. This programming has helped me to learn some basics for understanding web scripting.

In 2000, I asked an old friend to partner with me in starting my own web design firm. He was a programmer and I was the creative part. It was a perfect match, but it wasn't meant to be. After a year, he left me high and dry, but I still have my business, which is starting up rather slow.

To help pay my bills, I got a nighttime job. The graveyard shift might kill me, but at least my creditors won't. *s*

And then in 2001, I re-entered this site into another website competition, The Web Brawls, to pass the time away and meet some new people. But something happened this time that I wasn't expecting. I made it to the final round! All I had to do was win that round three weeks in a row and I could finally retire my site, but that wasn't meant to be either. I won the first two weeks, then bombed on the third week. I had to take a LOA after that to get over the disappointment, but now I'm ready to try again. Wish me luck!

Well, that's enough of about me now. Please enjoy the rest of your journey through my realm!
