Wikiname: JessicaM
Major: New Media Studies
Expected Graduation Date: Late 2011 or early 2012
Current occupation: I work in the Office of Communications at Midwestern University as the Communications Coordinator. In my role I do a little bit of everything, but my major responsibilities include coordinating the editing and publishing of the academic catalogs using SmartCatalog, a content management system and providing assistance with Web updates and monitoring of the University’s Web site.
What I expect to gain from this class: I hope to be able to create functional Web sites from scratch that are aesthetically pleasing. Also, I hope to have a basic understanding of HTML and CSS, as I hardly know anything about either one at this point.
Passion: I love to eat and cook. Film/Eating/Travelling
Favorite TV character (and why): My favorite TV character right now is probably Liz Lemon from 30 Rock because she's hilarious, nerdy, and she somehow manages her crazy work environment perfectly.

What's the one thing I wanted to take away from this class? From this class I wanted to get a taste of HTML/CSS and learn how to create a website from scratch. Thankfully, I accomplished both of these goals! Ultimately, I want to become a freelance web designer, and I feel satisfied that I've learned the basics. Over the summer I have some things that I want to add to my site, and I now know where to look for support. I'm also happy that I have a web hosting service so that I can make updates easily.
