A small faction of dreamers saw the opportunity with NCSA Mosaic browser and invited me to join. I didn’t have the right school, I didn’t have the right skills, and I was kind of funny looking. But I had a rebel spirit and a fearless passion to learn.

I got to work with the best people. Everything changed for me. And the web changed everything for the world. Love and Grace and a well earned rest to Internet Explorer. ❤️🚀
