A Houstonian by choice, I am inordinately proud to live here. I am constantly in motion and can usually be found writing about local businesses and entertainment, building websites, or taking pictures.
I am passionate about technology and people, and am thrilled at the emergence of Web 2.0, which combines the best of both worlds. I am addicted to sites like TechCrunch and TechDirt, and try not to miss a single beta launch.
I love exploring, and often do it vicariously through my National Geographic subscription. I love good food, would rather be in jeans, and suspect that I may be addicted to iced tea.
I am a visual communicator (photography, writing, design & layout) with a dollop of marketing thrown in for good measure.
I am an unapologetic dog-lover and have six - six! – at home, five of them rescues from kill shelters. (I also have two cats that are rescues as well.) After an especially bad day, there's nothing better for making you feel glad to be alive then to hang out with six little (okay, a couple of them are pretty big) beings who think you're the best thing since sliced bread - pure, unconditional, unadulterated love!
When I occasionally find the time to read, I like a good thriller, especially if it has a religious/mystic bent. (And yes, I liked the DaVinci code, but was reading this genre *way* before Dan Brown even thought about publishing his book.)
