*Position: Senior Design Consultant*

*Been with InMotion Hosting since: December 2010*

**How did you get started in the web hosting field?**

My Fine Arts/Graphic Design degree led me to have essential knowledge of the custom web design process, web hosting, and the benefits of investing into a professional, online presence.

**What is your current role at InMotion Hosting? What do you like most about it?**

As the Senior Design Consultant, my design background and the ease of working in a relaxed environment has allowed me to consult with small and medium size business owners.  I’ve also had the good fortune in working with Non-Profit organizations. This position has allowed our in-house team to custom build their new sites from scratch.

**Coolest gadget you own, want to own or have read about?**

I am not really into gadgets for the most part, but I really love my Suunto Ambit3 watch. I can wear it surfing or to a wedding, and still look sharp. It’s lasted surfing, snowboarding and my 70 lb dog. My next gadget, on the horizon, hopefully sooner than later, will be a Toyota Tacoma Sport.

**What would you like to tell us about yourself?**

Ever since I was able to hold a pencil, I have been doodling. My illustration, painting and graphic design outside of my experience with InMotion has allowed me to continue my creativity. I have participated in both the Boardwalk Art Show and Neptune Festival, and continue to manage my own WordPress site as a personal portfolio (our design team built it for me!).

**Describe your personality in one word?**

Adventurous.
