Hi guys,
John here, Im new to the forums!

Im 35 and am a self employed freelance web designer / entrepeneur living here in Brisbane, Australia. I work from my home based office here designing sites occasionally for clients as well as designing and running some of my own websites that bring in some pocket money.

My background is government, having spent 9 years working for both state and local government, mostly in server admin, networking etc. About a year and a half ago I quit my job and took the plunge into the great unknown - freelance web design. Ive been enjoying it ever since - sleeping in is the best part.

My skill set is classic ASP, HTML, Javascript, SQL, VBScript, graphic design, etc etc etc - I do everything myself. Ive been involved in web design, intranet development for approximately 7 years, and will gladly answer any questions you may have.

Anyway, enough "babble" - just thought Id introduce myself and say thanks for having me.

John

Thanks Lisa. It was the continual stumbling upon your blogs, videos and forum posts that inspired me to join.
