ABOUT ME

My Career Goals...

I have my bachelor's in Business Administration and I work in Telecommunications as a IT Technician. I am taking this Interaction Design for Web Design and Mobile Platforms program at DVC to focus my career on Web Design. I am taking this course, ARTDM171 Web Design 1 to start the program at DVC in order to earn my associates degree.

What I know about web design so far...

I took HTML and Photography at my High School. I then taught myself CSS, PHP and JavaScript. I have built a few websites for my friends and family. I have also built a few websites for my own personal use. I am currently working on a website for my family business. I am also working on a website for my own personal use.

What I hope to learn next...

I am currently relearning HTML and CSS in ARTDM171 to count towards my associates degree. In this program, I hope to become a Web Design professional. After the program, I am interested in the Web Design & Development Bachelor's degree at Champlain University Online. Then I hope to become a Web Developer.
