Brief History
For as long as I can remember I lived in a house with one of more computers. I even had my own computer from a very early age. A nice IBM 286 with DOS. I remember getting tired of typing in commands to start programs, especially because I was a slow typer at the time. My solution was to create my own menu system using batch files. That was the start of my interest in computer programming.
Most of my knowledge was self taught over the years. Because the internet wasn't as abundant with information (or search engines) as it is today, I had to teach myself HTML by taking other web pages and editing their HTML to see what each change did. It was a slow process, but it worked in the end.
I have been developing web sites on the internet since late 1997/early 1998. I don't see myself ever stopping other than for the occasional break to catch up on my other hobbies. It is what I enjoy doing the most and I will probably be doing it for the rest of my life.
