You would be hard-pressed to find an artistic medium or craft that I have not tried.

Soon after, I traded my paintbrushes for a computer mouse, completing a Digital Media degree from AB Tech in Asheville.<\/p><p>It has always been important to me to be a well-rounded designer. My diverse experience has taught me that small details make a huge difference, as long as you never lose sight of the big picture.<\/p><p>The last few years, I have been proud to give back to our local web community by serving as an organizer of WordCamp Asheville, a three day conference for WordPress enthusiasts.
