Something about me...

 

CHARLES ALLISON "HAL" GATEWOOD

You may be wondering to yourself where I get the name "Hal". Any guesses? It's just a nickname that I have gone by my entire life, derived from my middle name Allison.

I had a good childhood and because I can't remember most of it we'll skip to college. I started college as an art major and switched to Interactive Multimedia my sophomore year. It was a brand new degree and I was the third person from Oklahoma Christian University to graduate in it. I started HalGatewood.com on January 9th, 2004 and since then I have made over 30 websites. See some of them at my portfolio or at the bottom of this page.

Since graduation, I have become addicted to learning. I read constantly and enjoy finding out how to do new things. I'm always trying to keep up with the ever-changing internet world. I am also learning French. Mais oui.

In the future I hope to be running my own company with my wife Emilie and raising a good Christian family with no less than 34 kids. (Once a kid pops out I'm not cleaning the bathroom ever again!)

Thanks for reading up about me and feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, concerns, shirt ideas, or winning PowerBall numbers.
