Born and raised in South Carolina, I grew up across the river from Charleston in Mt. Pleasant. While attending high school at Bishop England High School, I found an interest in computers. I briefly attended the College of Charleston, before taking a break and moving to California for 6 months. Upon moving back to Charleston, I worked in the hospitality business at Wild Dunes Resort for 3 years. Next, I went back to the College of Charleston, this time as an employee instead of a student. Working in the computing department fed my early interest in computers. I learned on my own, earning my CCNA, and with help from fellow employees I have expanded my knowledge in computers, so much more then when it was just a hobby. I have worked in the Administrative Computing Depatment at College of Charleston since 2001.

My interests include the obvious of computers and photography. After receiving an Olympus C750 for my 26th birthday, I started taking pictures and learning more about photography. I now play around with my Olympus E-500. I like to travel and take pictures of different locations and hope to travel more in the future. I still enjoy computers as a hobby at home, away from work. I am a technology junkie all together, from being an audiophile to videophile. After high school came a golf phase. I played golf for about 5 years, playing a few times a week while working at Wild Dunes. After taking a 5 year sabbatical from have the game, I picked up the clubs again. I am a sports fanatic all together with a passion for football. Hail to the Redskins.
