AutoBio

History
     I was born on May 2nd, 1984 at North Hills Hospital in North Richland Hills, TX (near Fort Worth). I am the middle child of three; I have a sister 1 year older than me (Carrie) and a brother 1 year younger than me (Randy). I am named after my dad, although I am NOT a "Junior", I am a "II". My parents were divorced when I was 12, and both are remarried. I consider my 12 year old step-brother, Jacob, to be my brother, and all my extended family on my step-dad's side to be actual Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents and Cousins.

     I graduated from Richland High School in 2002, where I was very involved in the Theatre Department (notably the tech side) and the Cross Country Team. I am currently a Senior at THE University of Texas at Austin, where I am pursuing a B.A. in Computer Sciences.

     This website is something I started just as a fun project, but started years ago as a Geocities account, then a site on the CS servers at UT. I pride myself on developing every single one of my webpages with a text editor, and on meeting W3C standards. I still can't believe someone is paying me for my web skills!

Interests
I am a web developer at Aldor Solutions. Outside of work, I enjoy watching, living, eating and breathing UT Football. I got to go to the Rose Bowl and watch my Longhorns win the 2005 National Championship - it was the best experience of my life. I love to run. It is emotionally theraputic, mentally refreshing, and physically challenging - all of which I love. I ran a Marathon in February of 2004 and hope to run in another one. I enjoy listening to music, reading a good book, hanging out with my friends, and spending lots and lots of time working on nerdy computer stuff...like this website!
