Strange goings-on in Hollywood?! |
My living-making profession is as a website designer and “Mac” graphic artist. I am currently freelancing in both fields.
If you need a brilliant and creative web designer to create a sparkling Web presence for you, look no further. This website, for which I am writer, editor, designer, publisher and webmaster, will give you some indication of my abilities. Also, please see my “Web Work” page for a run-down on my current website clients along with references and testimonials.
Or, if you need a meticulous, detail-oriented, fast-but-thorough freelance (in-house) production artist, (and you’re located in the Los Angeles area) please drop me an e-mail and let’s talk turkey.
Otherwise ... enough of this boring work stuff already. I wanna have some fun! Don’t you? Good!! Let's go!!!
While I toil in the vineyards of the Macintosh to earn my keep, the work I do for love — and for spiritual nourishment — is playing music.
I am a classical and church organist. If you’d like to know more about pipe organs, see my Organs page.
I am in my eighth year as Music Director for Holy Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church inInglewood, California. Holy Trinity is a multi-cultural congregation of about 300 members. The worship service has a liturgical basis; however, upon that traditional framework our parish has built a rich and unique worship style. To give you some idea of the varied music you will hear at Holy Trinity, consider that we have a pipe organ and a Hammond with Leslie -- and that I use both instruments quite liberally. You’re welcome to come visit us! Drop me an email and I’ll send you directions.
Holy Trinity has a pretty nice website, the by-product of an HTML workshop I conducted for them. See Holy Trinity's website.
I am also a thereminist. I have devoted a comprehensive section of my website to theremins. If you’re interested in knowing more about this marvelous, mysterious musical instrument, follow this Theremin link!
About my family: I am the second-youngest of five children born to Minnie Jeannette Jessup and William Harold Lester, Sr., who celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary on June 16, 1947. Here are some Family Portraits.
About my pets:I have a very sweet 8-year-oldTibetan Terrier mix named Oz, and a 16-year old cat named Nikki Goldberg. Almost losing Oz last year was a tremendous ordeal; and in his honor, and as a tribute to all the friends and even strangers who helped us though the ordeal, I have added a Furry Loved Ones page to my site.
I’ve got many other fun interests, too! Feel free to poke around the rest of my site -- there’s lots of stuff to discover. Please drop me a line to let me know you visited!
