Hi, I’m Liz techy, website designer/developer, strategist, problem solver, and collaborator. I knew from a young age that I would be doing something technical – in fact, when I was 2 years old I took a screwdriver from my mother’s toolbox and I was trying to use it take apart my stroller! I ran through the gamut of things I wanted to study, but finally decided on Mechanical Engineering. I got my Bachelor’s degree and went to work right away – sort of, it turned out I needed to wait for a security clearance before I could really do any work. So, I sat in my office waiting for my security clearance. While waiting, I worked on the company’s internal website. When I finally got my security clearance and was able to work – I loved it! But when my oldest daughter was born, I longed for a career that would allow me to be home for her.
I started with the usual direct sales and multi-level marketing programs, but my heart was never fully in it and I am not a salesperson. However, I did discover that to be really successful you needed to have your OWN website, not the generic, cookie-cutter website that everyone got where just their name was different, but your own website.
Well, I knew how to create a website, so I made one for myself. Pretty soon, other people asked me to make them a site as well and I realized that I enjoyed designing the websites much better than the sales. So, I started designing websites! I found that it was the perfect combination of my technical skills and my creativity!
Over the years, I continued to learn different platforms – but, the one I have found is best for our customers is WordPress. I also continued to learn how to best use Social Media and search engines to build a business.
When I am not designing websites or developing social media marketing strategies, I am usually coaching softball or spending time with my family. I am married with 3 kids, 3 dogs, and a cat!
