About the Business
Then came the dot com boom; share prices in internet companies plummeted and many were laid by the wayside. But in many respects, if we hadn't have had that early speculative mania to drive the industry, I doubt if the internet would be what it is today. It needed massive investment. I have suffered my own personal challenges too; as a disabled person with bipolar disorder, my life has often mirrored the highs and lows of the market. So in the 2000s, I pursued a career within the community arts field and worked with many different groups on a variety of art projects.
I also continued producing my own artwork and had some success in securing public art commissions, having a few exhibitions as well as an artist's residency. Within many of these projects I utilized my web and graphic design skills. In the second half of the decade, and up to it's demise in 2012, I worked as the web designer for the Council of Disabled People (CDP). Working for CDP I developed an interest in Disability Rights.
