My Introduction

My name is Yvonne Ashenfelter. I was born and raised in White Mountain (located on the Seward Peninsula). I graduated from Mt. Edgecumbe High School in 2003; and since then I've lived in Anchorage and have been attending UAA. I currently work for Norton Sound Economic Development Corporation (NSEDC). The company is one of six Community Development Quota groups in western Alaska. We provide economic development to our member communities fro with the money earned from Bering Sea fishing royalties.

I have an AA in General Studies (I am one of those students that couldn't decide what to pursue in college and changed my major a few times). I am currently working on a certificate in Office Digital Media. And that's why I'm taking this class - I think this class will familiarize myself more with design and web site development. Eventually, I'd like to use the things I learn in this class and the certificate to design my company's web site, newsletters, annual report, etc.

I enjoy traveling (just returned from a Hawaii vacation), taking pictures, the outdoors, spending time with family at our summer fish camp, picking berries, sewing, baking, my TV shows (Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Private Practice, Brothers and Sisters, and the list can go on), and anything that I have to use my creative mind to create.
