I started working as a Systems Editor in the NewsIT Department in Sept. 1999. I worked as a CCI SuperUser and a Macintosh Specialist on the Help Desk. I ended up being the top Macintosh expert in the whole building, the go-to person for all Macintosh issues. I set up networking protocol when we went wireless, I set best practices and I was the main troubleshooter for photo and graphics issues on deadline.

This was a consulting job I was hired for to finish up a WordPress design job for Iacono’s Pizza. They had already chosen a theme and a designer had designed graphics, but I had to do some back-end work to get the staging server to work and I set up the site so we could start working on the design. This was kind of an enhanced editing job. I had to do a lot of formatting in the menu section and basically putting things into place, so they’d work. I tweaked the code to get it to look right.

This was a consulting job for the American Chemical Society in Washington, D.C. I did a contract for their sister company CAS (Chemical Abstracts Systems) in Columbus, OH and when American Chemical Society asked CAS for a recommendation for a WordPress person, they recommended me. The site they needed help with was for a group called Women Chemists Committee, a group of female members of the society.
