About Me
I'm a
Hoosier girl, living in Indianapolis, IN, with my mother and two spoiled rotten
kitties. I
graduated from Ball State University in 1991, with a B.S. degree in exercise
science. I'm also a Chi Omega sorority alumnus, and a former Indianapolis
Colts Cheerleader (1990, 1991 and co-captain in 1992). I don't even want
to discuss the team's record back then. (Ahem!)
When I
needed to make a career change to do something that required a lot of creativity
and artistic ability, I went back to school in 1993 to earn an Associate's
degree in interior design from the Int'l Academy of Merchandising and Design
(Tampa, FL). Tragically, however, I was paralyzed from the chest down in a
terrible car accident on Sept. 11th, 1995. I was only 27 years old.
It broke my heart that I would not be able to work as an interior designer - my
dream job - due to my spinal cord injury leaving me without the use of my
hands.
Thank
goodness for the Internet! It has
given me an outlet - a venue for expressing my creativity through web site
development and graphic design, and has provided the opportunity for me to work
from home, be my own boss and meet other people. My hobbies include
writing my auto-biography about my crazy life, and playing computer games,
especially 'Bejeweled 2' and 'Scrabble Cubes.' I'm trying to cut back on
the games, though, so I don't spend all of my waking hours online!
If you
have any questions or comments, please E-MAIL ME, and
I'll do my best to reply within 48 hours.
My
name is Cynthia Nord, but you can just call me "Cindy." I developed my
first web site in 2005, for my own non-profit organization, Cynthia's Hope
fund. Following that, I built a new site for my candle business, as well
as some personal pages...and the ball kept rolling. Over the past two and
a half years, I've been an amateur "free-lance" web master, successfully
designing and marketing e-commerce sites, mostly for family and
friends.
Since
2006, I've also been creating unique, colorful graphic designs and witty sayings
to print and sell over the Internet on casual apparel, such as t-shirts,
sweatshirts and baseball caps, and on keepsake gifts, like tote bags, coffee
mugs and magnets. I offer personalization and customization, too.
All profits go to my charity.
