[aka Erik Baldwin]
I am a highly motivated self-starter; if it's been done before, and I'm doing it 'again', there's probably a good reason. I grew up in Central Florida, and just recently moved to Chicago, Illinois. My background is in Mechanical Engineering and Residential & Commercial Construction. I attended the University of South Florida, located in Tampa, Florida and majored in Architecture. I was accepted to a few different universities, for various majors, but decided to follow my dream of being my generations Frank Lloyd Wright; the current economy and housing market have put that dream on hold, so I am actively involved in making The Web a better place. Web design and development have always been in my blood. In high school, I was the Systems Administrator, overseeing and troubleshooting nearly 1000 different computers for one school soon led to being in charge of the County Districts web team. I've been actively involved in building websites and web-apps since around 1999. Undertaking so many tasks in high school, led me to gain a lot of knowledge about the subject, and I was asked to teach my peers via a web design class. Needless to say, I enjoy what I do, even if it is only a means to reaching my dream. The best way to make our dreams come true is to put forth 120% effort in everything we do.
