My name is Andrew Norcross, (we’ll just go with “Norcross” from now on, if that’s OK). I’m a Wordpress ninja, freelance web developer, IT consultant, student, husband, father, and overall regular geek-for-hire. I currently live in St. Petersburg, Florida, with my kick-ass wife and rock and roll son.
I am what is referred to in the scientific community as a “geek” or a “nerd”, which I am more than OK with. I’ve been that way since I was a kid, so why bother fighting it? In fact, I am such a geek that I’ve begun a technology focused blog called RegularTech where I am trying to break down some of the technology issues and problems that face business professionals, entrepreneurs , small business owners, and average regular people on a day to day basis. I truly believe that computers are tools to get a job done.
Because I clearly don’t have enough on my plate with working full time, going to school at night, and being a husband and father, I have a small computer services and web design company called Reboot Computer Services with my partner in crime Heathen Life We focus on hardware upgrades, software configuration, network troubleshooting, and website design.
I maintain a blog called Restless Like Me where I discuss certain issues that I find relevant and worth the conversation, mainly politics, economics, and generational issues. For what it’s worth, I’m somewhat of a leftist in terms of my political beliefs, and take issue with those who feel that social and economic class dictates opportunity. While I’ve been accused of being a socialist, but I just think we should do a bit more to help each other.
Beyond all that boring stuff, I’m just your average everyday guy. I’ve got a very loving and understanding wife, a son that rocks more than anything I’ve ever seen, and a great family around me. I’ve been known to jam out to some punk rock, enjoy a cigar and a nice coffee, BBQ with friends, or just relax watching a baseball game. I still get tattoo’d when the time (and money) allows, and after all is said and done, I’m here to do what everyone else is doing. Try to get a little bit better, move a little bit farther, and help some people along the way.
I also have one of the coolest kids that has ever existed. Seriously. He’s that awesome.
