About JavaHat Solutions…

What started out as TMP Designs in 2002 transformed into JavaHat Solutions in 2010 and I am still creating websites and enjoying it as much as I did in the beginning.

How did I get here…

I began designing my first websites while attending Malaspina University College (now VIU) in 1999. I had a passion for teaching and technology. I wanted to learn how to create websites using html. While taking full time studies toward my Bachelor of Education and Bachelor of Arts degrees I also enrolled in an online Weaving the Web Program at BCIT from 2001-2004 which I excelled at.

In 2003 I graduated from Malaspina and began teaching and tutoring full time. I also began hand-coding websites in my spare time. In 2004, I got married and by 2005 my first son was born. I decided to take a break from teaching so I could stay home and raise our son. In 2007 our daughter was born, and in 2010 our youngest son was born. I continued to stay home with the kids and in the evenings I create websites and taught myself how to code in php, javascript, and css by taking online tutorials and working on projects that challenged my knowledge.

In 2015 I experienced health issues that restricted my day to day living. I had to change my focus in life. I spent two years working with several doctors trying to find a diagnosis so I could start the road to recovery. In 2017 my symptoms subsided and I was able to focus my energy on my family and my work. I enrolled in WordPress courses and decided to focus my business on WordPress Development.

And the passion is still strong…

Every day is a new adventure!
Technology is constantly progressing and if we stop to catch our breath we will fall behind. I continue to take courses in my spare time and I enjoy taking on projects that challenge my skills and broaden my knowledge.
