I have spent many years freelancing part time while I was raising my kids full time. My kids are grown now and I am ready to start the next phase of my life. I have worked as a developer and graphic designer for myself and others, doing everything from monthly newsletters, book editing, blogs, brochure sites, e-commerce sites, documentation sites, and more. I have also sold various things from books to artwork on Ebay, Amazon and Etsy. I have also done different types of volunteer work over the years including starting a non-profit for a state park in Florida and teaching Tai Chi to seniors.
I have had jobs working in retail, food service, health care, tourism, and natural resources. It has been over twenty years since I have held down a job(w-2) for an employer.
Over the past few years I have been selling paintings locally through shows and online. Most of my time has been spent coding and expanding my knowledge and skills.
