Welcome to the section where I tell you a wee thing or two about me, where I'm from and what I am trying to accomplish with this website.

In 2004, when the concept was put into reality, EllicottCity.net was born with about 30 pages. Since then, the site has grown into a network with over 10,000 pages dedicated to our local areas and hundreds of thousands of visitors have chosen to check out the pages to find out more, making town's more accessible to everyone with an internet connection.
I am from London, England, well, South East London to be exact, not too far from Greenwich, where time is run.
Originally Born in Tripoli Libya (British Citizen 1969 - the old man used to work for an American Oil Firm) and living in England, Austria (the old lady is from there), Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Oman and having |
visited Turkey, Holland, Malta, Scotland, Ireland, Iceland, Aruba, St Maartin, Germany and France, has given me exposure to a wide diversity of cultures, of which I feel very lucky and kinda makes me who I am today.
I came to the US in 2001 as a student in Anne Arundel Community College and completed a degree in Communication Arts Technology, which basically is - graphic design including all forms of multimedia technology.
This truly is a great place to live or visit; the town is very quaint and reminds me of being back in England.

Local businesses can join the site or more depending on their level of interest in marketing.
