About my digital presence:
I started to dabble in web construction/design in 2003. Originally, I used Blogger to start my online journaling, but switched to Wordpress about three years in. I continued to develop my basic coding skills over the years, but recent advancements in web tools have changed the game. A couple of years ago, I switched all my sites over to Squarespace. I doubt I'll ever code again.

When I started the blog, I called it "Beit Carr;" "beit" is the Hebrew word for "house." Since the pronunciation constantly confused people, I switched it over to House of Carr and use that for my online identity. Before you ask, this was years before the Netflix series House of Cards.

Because I transitioned this blog from multiple platforms over there years, there are likely to be some broken image and hyperlinks. I apologize if that's annoying. I've tried to update those as much as possible.
