It’s hard to even know where to begin when it’s been so long. A quick summary of events to catch you all up:
- I left my job as an art therapist at Redwood Place and transitioned my career to web design (Liz Beck Designs) about four years ago
- A little over three years ago, I gave birth to twin boys
- Working for myself was great in that I could work from home and spend time with my boys during their first year of life (with help from a mother’s helper). But, hustling for clients and establishing a business is really hard to do when you’re a new mom. I began a job hunt and landed a webmaster job at The Hamlin School in San Francisco
- Two redesigns later (of their website and then their Learning Management System), my daily work moved from a more communications and fundraising focus to educational technology
The past four years been extremely dynamic, and for the past two I’ve been neglecting to write. I still have lots to say, much of which has been brewing for quite some time.
I’m now writing again, but this time as a part of The Hamlin School’s Technology Department (yes…I am again subject to awful school photos of myself. reminiscent of my self-conscious teen years), and I am automatically migrating my posts from our Ed Tech Blog over to lizbeck.net. I will also sprinkle in a few posts related to art therapy and other things of interest here as well.
Thanks for keeping in touch even though I’ve been silent for so long. I’m glad to be back in action!
