June 2001 - August 2001

Website Development course offered by the southern California branch of the Regional Occupational Program (ROP).  Learned HTML and Adobe GoLive.  Developed a personal website with a restaurant critique theme, though it was never published due to time constraints at the conclusion of the course.  Used my knowledge of Adobe GoLive to learn Microsoft Frontpage on my own, which is the program I now use.
