About Me:
My passion is good design. Balance and proportion and color in visual art. Rhythm in the written word. I may not be a painter, a sculptor, or an illustrator, but I am an artist.
When I was 16, I was told I could never make a living as an artist. I, liking a challenge, set out to prove that person wrong.
I started college when I had barely turned 17 and got my Associates degree in Visual Communications by the time I was 19 and most of my friends were graduating high school. I worked at a small print shop for a while, and then later began freelancing. As the design field turned digital, I returned for my Bachelors in Multimedia Design.
Then my clients started asking "Do you know how to do this, or that?" Again, never one to back down from a challenge, I expanded my skills, so that I could say "Yes, I can do that!" If I didn't know it, I learned it. Or I found someone who could.
So to that person who challenged my dreams when I was only 16... Here I am 17 years later, achieving my dream, and dreaming of the future.
I have successfully owned and operated grayCeWORKS small business solutions, a computer, business services, and graphic design consultancy company, since 1998.

With every contact we make, especially when it reaches across the continent and to other countries, we attract the world and all of its amazing gifts back to us. Anyone in business these days that stays in their own back yard is really limiting their growth potential by hundreds of thousands of dollars, if not millions!

I have only been a member here for a couple months now but I can honestly say this is an absolutely awesome place in which you can grow your business.
In fact in the little bit of time I have been here I have received 45,900 (and growing!) unique visitors to my website with a whopping 190,973 page views! I want to say that even though there are just 11,000+ members here there is a lot more traffic rolling through here that never take the time to register as a member. That traffic will hit your website too if you interact effectively with enough people.
The main thing I personally do is jump in and put consistent activity in here at Sta.rtup.biz to grow my own network. Remember that wallflowers usually build very feeble networks.
If you feel any apprehension about your ability to market yourself properly on the Internet make sure to come by my page and chat with me a bit. I would be more than willing to help get you acquainted with some of the going-ons here! Plus I share close to a couple hundred blog posts you may find interesting as well as helpful.
Just don't give up building your network until you have given it your absolute all!
