For these interviews, we pick people who add value to our community – in the blog, in the forums, in the projects. Plainly – activities that make crowdSPRING a better community. Be professional, treat others with respect, help us build something very special, and we’ll take notice. We’re very proud to feature Janis Aydelette (crowdSPRING username: janisa) today. Janis lives and works in Douglasville, Georgia. 1. Please tell us about yourself. Hi.  My name is Janis, (aka Janisa on crowdSPRING).  I laugh at my cS name Janisa,  actually , it’s a combination of my first name and last initial.  In my haste to set up a profile, it became my user name. Believe me,  I’ve  tried to change It,  to no avail.  Now, I’m just trying to embrace it. My husband Jamie and I live just outside of Atlanta, with our daughter Katie (19) and 18 year old son Trey. We’ve had a rescue Corgi, Belle,  for 11 years, and  recently  adopted  our cat, King Louis, who was left on our front porch. And they are all the loves of my life. I grew up in Swannanoa, NC, a  beautiful  small  town  just outside of Asheville,  number 8 of 10 kids.  My mother  was  wonderful, she had a song for everything, peeled a lot of potatoes and took care of all of us. What little spare time she had, she read, and did crossword puzzles.  I remember her drawing  these amazing   faces   in  pen  on the borders of the newspaper .  I like to think I got my drawing skills from her. My dad was a character, a southern renaissance man.  He built our little 4 room house, could fix anything,  and  played  the harmonica as well as I’ve ever heard anyone play.  We grew up in a tiny house, on a  tiny  budget, that was full of love. These were the things that helped define me, and my personality. I ‘m  passionate about things I become involved  in, and perhaps competitive to a fault.  I remember  a  birthday  party  when I was about 10 years old, it had 3 separate contests:  the swim under the weighted hula hoops contest, the craziest dance contest, and the funniest faces contest.       Determined to win ALL of them,  I did.  It didn’t matter if I nearly drowned, or how contorted my face was, and the dance moves…well, I’m sure I  left it all out there on the dance floor!
