Barb Henry
By Craig Cannings
Hi, I’m Barb! My journey began in 2001 helping to build a corporate intranet website the old-fashioned way with nothing but code.
Building websites was just a hobby in the beginning. I wasn’t into playing games or watching TV so I would spend my free time learning about the web. I haven’t changed. Learning is fun for me. In 2005, I left the corporate world and became an independent consultant tasked with many different roles but still building websites whenever I could. I’ve played with other website platforms but once I entered the wonderful world of WordPress, I was hooked for life.
It’s highly likely that you have a website or are considering building one. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have someone with real experience and knowledge to talk to about your website and all that goes with it? Over the years, my life has taken different paths, but the one thing that has remained consistent is my love of building websites and supporting others with their website needs. Wherever you are on your website journey, I’m here to help you make the best choices for you and your business by eliminating the confusion. Know that success can be in your future.
I would like to give a shout out to Barb Henry. She brought some light back into a dark scary tunnel! This wonderful lady helped me to regain some belief in my ability to tackle WordPress. There are few people that would have done what you did and I cannot thank you enough.
