Two Decades of Multimedia Experience Now in Anchorage, Alaska

Two Decades of Multimedia Experience Now in Anchorage, Alaska

I was looking at the calendar and it dawned on me. I now have twenty years of experience in multimedia. “Multimedia” is hardly the term we use now. We call it “New Media” or “Interactive Design” or “Digital Design.” Back in my Dallas days it used to be so difficult to explain my work to family. My dad the physician would just tell friends, “My youngest son works in computers.” LOL. Maybe I just should have told them, “I’m a porn star!”

My new challenge? Trying to to explain why I feel so good about my move to Alaska.

FileMaker Database Consulting in Anchorage, Alaska. Home Again.

I also enjoy the young man who is driving the project.

I first came to Alaska to craft a database for a training initiative up on the Slope. So carrying the title FileMaker Consultant? It’s like coming home. Again. File it!
