If you are looking for a web designer who strives to be more today than they were yesterday, then I am the dedicated, driven professional you seek. 

I am a focused, pro-active, resilient self-starter with over 15 years of professional experience in my field.  I am an excellent employee, co-worker, contractor with active listening skills and the unique ability to take ownership of an assignment or task set before me.  With no hesitation, I strive to complete all tasks presented to me above expectations.  When faced with unconventional challenges, my record demonstrates my ability to provide dynamic out-of-the-box solutions.  I've been told, I thrive on finding ways to be more efficient and effective, everyday.. and it's true.  I do!

I wasn't always a web designer.  I have many interest.  As a child, I started singing in my hometown of Pueblo, CO with my family's gospel group, known as "The Chandler Family".  When we were younger, we were called the "Chandleretts".  Mom and Dad, Rev. F. L. Chandler and Mrs. Rosetta Chandler always encouraged each me and my siblings to do our best with the gift God gave us.  I believe each of us has tried to do just that

I have always been active in school, church and at home.  I loved  singing, dancing, playing sports and working on computers; so when the time came to go college, electing to major in Entertainment with a minor in computers was natural. 

In college, I starting a gospel choir, which became part of the University of Southern Colorado's school curriculum.  After two years, I transferred to California's Institute of the arts, a private college just outside Los Angeles, CA. There I founded and directed the Cal Arts Gospel Extravaganza and was looking into recording an album with a group when I decided to join some of my friends at an open call audition for "Fame".. and I got it!

You may recognize my picture now as the young lady who played 'Dusty Tyler' on the innovative television series "Fame". You may also recognize me from guest appearances on a Movie of the Week called "Give Me My Child" staring Valerie Bertenelii, "A Different World, a Bill Cosby Production, Jerry Lewis Telethon or Lour Rawl's Parade of Stars.  I've also been featured in numerous national tours, plays and musicals: "Dream Girls", The Gospel Truth", "Wait Until Dark", "Brigadoon", "Out Of The Frying Pan" and "Harlem Suite" with Maurice Hines and Jennifer Holiday.   I've also been featured as the lead soloist with the Philharmonic Orchestra in Los Angeles for their Christmas program.  and I earned a Drama-Logue Award for outstanding performance in the lead role of 'Effie White' in "Dream Girls", the nation tour. 

In between all of these "gigs" I found I always had my computer and the desire to create web pages.  I still have a strong passion for it and I suppose I always will.
