Who is CompuGoddess?
The Details
(born in Brooklyn, then lived in New Jersey, and later, Connecticut). As a teenager, I wanted to be a musician and went to New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, eventually graduating in 1982 with a Bachelor of Music degree (otherwise known as a BM).
By that time, I was figuring out that the life of a classical guitarist wasn't for me. I came out to New Mexico to visit another guitarist friend, and truly was enchanted by the state. I moved here in 1985.
from 1986 to 1995. I loved carrying mail and hated the Postal Service. I was given a diagnosis of arthritis in 1993 (in my feet, of course!), and successfully ignored that for a while. I ran a barcode sorter from 1995 to 1997, and then left the Post Office (one of the happiest moments of my life).
I started taking every computer class I could find, and began a job working at a rock shop (Mama's Minerals) that sold beads as well. In the spring of 1998, I took an HTML class (HTML is the language that holds web pages together) and was off and running. I convinced the owner of the rock shop that a web site would be less expensive than a full-color catalog, and all of a sudden I was a webmaster.
