<p>I was first exposed to computers as a child. My family had a Commodore 64, on which, as a ten-year old child, I
would do my homework, play games, and make simple programs. I learned how to program in
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BASIC"><abbr title="Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code">BASIC</abbr></a>.
It was then that I began to understand how computers could improve our day-to-day lives.</p>
<p>When we upgraded to a newer computer, we finally got the Internet (via <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prodigy_%28online_service%29">Prodigy</a>) in our home. When I was 14, I got my first email address, and at 15, created my first website on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeoCities">GeoCities</a> (my site was in the <em>Silicon Valley</em> &ldquo;neighborhood&rdquo;). My site was essentially a blog before blogs existed.</p>
<p>Initially, I built the site using a <abbr title="What You See Is What You Get">WYSIWYG</abbr> editor (namely, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_FrontPage">MS FrontPage</a>), but with my programming background, I was interested in what made these pages into the pages I saw in my web browser. It wasn&rsquo;t long before I was hand-coding the site.</p>
<p>I learned <abbr title=" Hypertext Markup Language">HTML</abbr> to layout the site, <abbr title="Cascading Stylesheets">CSS</abbr> to give it some style, and eventually JavaScript to make it dynamic. During that time, I had my own web design business. I had one client while in high school, but I gained skills necessary to work with others and to take another person&rsquo;s vision, and make it real.</p>
<p>When I entered college, I gained additional skills necessary to run enterprise websites. I learned PHP, for truly dynamic website. I learned SQL, to interact with databases. I also gained some experience with server administration by setting up and running my website on my own <abbr title="Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP">LAMP</abbr> server. I also gained experience with several platforms and frameworks.</p>
<p>Since that time, I&rsquo;ve worked in numerous industries, on websites of all shapes and sizes. I continue to learn more and improve my skills.</p>
