Biography
I was escorted into the world of computing when my parents purchased a Commodore Vic20 in or around 1982. Typically quite frugal, my father understood the power of computers (at least for his kids, he still won't mess with them) and upped the antie by purchasing an Apple IIc for me in 1984.
I became interested in static HTML in '97 and a few years later became a big fan of WYSIWYG editors (GoLive and Dreamweaver) after using them for several employers as well as freelance work. As the web developed it became clear that I needed additional functionality and I started investigating open source web frameworks. Drupal made the most sense to me and since then I've become active in the Chicago Drupal community as an attendee of the Chicago Drupal Meetup Group and an Assistant Organizer of the Fox Valley Drupal Meetup Group. I run GoGrow.org and build Drupal sites for churches and other Christian ministries.
I'm married and have three small children. We attend and volunteer at a Vineyard church here in Aurora. I am quite interested in how church and tech can be better integrated.
I am a Geek. I love God.
