About Me

Bio

     My name is Laura Paden and I am designer focused primarily on the web and social media. I have four years experience working with web design.

     Since my first website I created for my high school my junior year (2008) I have enjoyed being able to create sites for many others. From friends who need a small place on the web, to larger companies in town who need a site redesigned.

     I am currently working towards acquiring a degree in web design at Harding University, aimed at completion in May 2013. In addition to web design, I have taken classes in computer programming as well as graphic design.
