Founder; Creative Director
My name is Lara Chelak, and I'm proud of the fact that I've been a web nerd since the young age of twelve. How did it start? Well the first website I developed was a fanpage for a popular computer game of the time known as "Petz."

It's been a long time since I've updated my newsletters with pictures of "dogz" and "catz." In the past eight years I've experimented with a variety of styles, systems, and languages on the web. My clients have included small-town bloggers, an Ivy-League university, and budding comedians.

I even think I've found the key to working successfully on the web through it all. I believe it's a combination of personalized customer service, the inspiration to stand at every cutting-edge, and applying a creative approach to any sort of challenge.

To aid me in my online adventures I use a variety of self-taught computer languages including XHTML, PHP, CSS and more. Particularly, I specialize in the manipulation of content management systems to really offer any sort of solution including WordPress, Movable Type, and ExpressionEngine.

Additionally, I am a rising-Junior at Barnard College at Columbia University and the former online editor of the Columbia Daily Spectator (January 2008 - March 2009). Between balancing my course load, numerous activities, and this company, I head a project at GenocideCurriculum.org, and update a a Tumblr. I also dance with the Ukrainian Dance Company Syzokryli.

And on that note, thank you for your interest in Blog What? Design!
