Greetings from Spokane Washington!

Hey Everyone! So am I suppose to start my own post? Or my own thread.... I have noticed both...it just goes to show you with buzztouch there is always one way to do things :P~~ I am going to do my introduction here.... Hello, my name is Sheri and I am a buzztouchaholic. I have been in the "program" for over 12 months......tee hee ok ok....Seriously,....I LOVE THIS!!!!! I am the co-founder of The Women of Buzztouch and love to the community that has transpired around it. I joined buzztouch out of frustration after going through the Appmaker stage and unsuccessfully trying to hire a couple of programmers and realizing....heck I could do this too! Born and raised in Washington/Idaho border but have traveled through out the US and overseas through either the military or as a travel nurse. Always been known for being an explorer at heart and generally jump before I notice if I have a parachute or not. As a kid I would break open radios and clocks just to see how they work and have actually built a computer from 8GB so one of my friends can run AOL on it. I have always been fascinated with programming but never was able to jump in because of my self-limiting talk of ....Oh...I am not smart enough or there is just guys in the field..NOT TRUE. Mobile app development comes in all ages, gender and all incomes. My long term goal is to teach what I am learning in my local community to as many people who want to listen and empower them to success. My website is http://www.rxpublishing.com because I build what I know for now. I have had 2 years of internet marketing training that have helped me get a "grasp" of the mobile industry. I feel that marketing and coding can go hand in hand given the purpose for it. I have had the privilege to meet in person some amazing people on the forum and it is a strong personal goal to meet more. I believe as a community we can take this to a whole new level can help David achieve a goal of buzztouch to be the "GOTO" place to make an app. Too many people to mention that I thank for giving me the confidence and success I feel right now. I love you all so much and giving you a great big group hug!

Pleased to meet you, Sheri! You are an amazing contributor to buzztouch, and I'm enjoying getting to know you better. "As a kid I would break open radios and clocks just to see how they work" - I totally did this as a kid also! So many radios laying in parts...I was much more interested in taking them apart than than putting them back together. I think it ultimately gave me the confidence to do what I do today, which is trying to kill hardware and software before our customers get it. Washington ROCKS! I'd so love to come up there for a WA/ID meetup! Looking forward to see all the amazing things you'll get done with buzztouch! Mark

It's great to have you in the buzztouch family, Sheri! You are one of the people that make this community so great. BTW--Sheri is a member of buzztouch Minnesota. She is so committed to buzztouch that she traveled from Spokane, Washington to Minneapolis, Minnesota for our Minnesota Meetup!

I'm totally loving the website! The colors are great, and the apps look super cool! I wasn't even aware of a couple of those...I love the skull quiz one. Gives me some ideas for other apps...people love to learn while they're sitting in the car or bus or train during a commute. Great work!
