SheTech and Company began as a part-time, one-person consultancy in the mid-1990s. Rebekkah Hilgraves, the company's founder and president, has been knocking around the IT industry for many years, starting in technical support and moving through technical documentation, training, project management and finally small business consulting, which included web hosting, design and maintenance, small networks, software support and the ubiquitous "other duties as assigned" (which is probably the entirety of any consultant's job description).

Starting life as a technical trainer for Cheetah Software Systems in Los Angeles, she moved quickly into technical support and documentation, finding need for both while with Cheetah. From there, she worked with the marketing team for software testing software (Software Research, Inc. in San Francisco), supported and documented UNIX-Windows interoperability software (Exodus Technologies and GraphOn Corporation in Seattle) and supported and project-managed a web-based collaborative development environment (in San Francisco-based CollabNet's New York office). After CollabNet closed down its New York operations, she formed SheTech and Company.

Upon moving to Austin, Texas in 2006, she was invited to become Managing Editor of NetPerformance.com team, an online technical magazine. This prompted her to move more strongly into web design and content management, now the specialty of SheTech and Company. Now based in Maryville, Tennessee, SheTech and Company comprises a national team of highly skilled graphic designers, web designers, marketing/communications and database experts.

Ms. Hilgraves brings expertise in CSS, Photoshop and graphic design, several content management systems (including the open source Joomla! and commercial Ektron CMS solutions) and blog platforms; she has a strong background in writing, editing and multimedia development and has written training courses on helpdesk, customer relationship management, and the Photoshop software. With additional experience in technical support and technical project management, Rebekkah Hilgraves brings years of experience to every development project.

Rebekkah Hilgraves is the recent co-author with David Busch of David Busch's Quick Snap Guide to Adobe Photoshop.com and the soon-to-be-published David Busch's Quick Snap Guide to Photoblogging with WordPress.

In her spare time, Rebekkah is also an opera singer, often annoying neighbors and scaring small children with the sound of her voice.

The "and Company" part of SheTech and Company includes some of the industry's most talented programmers, writers, graphic designers and database designers.
