7th generation Oregonian, here to try and serve my community to the best of my abilities.
As far back as I can remember, I've enjoyed helping others, often too much, putting myself in need of help, but rarely asking in-kind.
When it comes to customer service, my first true public experience was in the Summer of 1988 when I began work at Civic Stadium, now the Civic Center with Kidsports by South Eugene High School. I worked the Summer seasons through 1999 as batboy, scoreboard (manual), program sales, and wholesale vending (Pepsi, peanuts and frozen yogurt) to the fans inside watching the games.
Fast forwarding about 19 years with various other employment between, to September 2018, I entered the realm of Gig Services with Lyft and then Uber Passenger operations. From November 2018, with Uber Eats, I entered the food delivery side, ultimately ending passenger operations July 2020. I have also added on Roadie (groceries and prescription delivery), Postmates (eventually taken over by Uber), Doordash, Grubhub (recently taken over by Amazon in 2023), and My Menu Helper (based in Eugene, starting as My Coffee Helper).

From the time of playing Microsot Flight Simulator (2D) on an IBM PC Jr with a Sony Trinitron color TV set up as the monitor by my grandfather in 1988, I've been peaked on computers and technology.
In April 1995, an up and coming internet service provider came along, Eugene Free Net (started from a single computer in a closet). I signed up with them and set up my first email address, though just prior to that, was hooked on the Bulletin Board Services, investing in a local host in Springfield, while still residing at my parents in Eugene.
From setting up my first website (text mode) with my first Internet Service Provider (ISP), nearing the end of the 20th Century, I also started investing in my own domain, and then bouncing around web hosting providers as funds and technology aloud.
For about 20 years, I've been wanting to host my own server, and bouncing to xFinity Business Class to finally ending up with Alyrica, I was able to finally achieve that back in May, 2023, where I am now able to host this custom website, and others as needed.
