Need help? I can probably provide it.

What can I help you with?

With the broad range of experience I have, I can probably help you with whatever you need and do so at a reasonable rate.

Some examples of that experience include working in education, broadcasting, archaeology and food service. And that's not listing all of them! And then what did I do in all those industries? It ranges from administrative, support and leadership. Again that's not the full list.

Yes, that's a lot of different things, but that's me, with a diverse set of skills and interests.

Areas of Experience

Tech

I’ve got a broad base of experience in IT. Technology, of the computer variety, has always been something I found engaging. From writing programs and playing games on my uncle’s Vic20 to designing and building applications and the needed databases for Cultural Resources Management, and a whole lot of things in between. End user tech support, network administration and systems administration to name a couple.

Graphic Design

My experience in graphic design started as a teenager getting to work with the initial beta for Ventura Publisher. And then, once Adobe ported Illustrator and Photoshop over to Windows no longer being a Mac only program. Having, for a number of years, run my own small graphic design business I have experience designing logos, creating ads, putting together product catalogs, laying out business cards and letterhead and a number of additional job types.

Culinary Arts

This is where the last, almost two decades, area I’ve been focused. I’ve always loved food, and especially getting creative with it. Things started with helping to feed archaeologists at a number of field schools up in the forest somewhere. And then it turned into feeding staff and students at the Grove School and running the lunch program for around 15 years. Serving around a hundred freshly prepared meals. And those meals were every day different, and quite often food from other cultures and parts of the world.
