my list still shows numbers despite the fact that the tag is <ul>

<ul> <li>I’m an aspiring web designer who loves everything about the web. I've lived in lots of different places and have worked in lots of different jobs.</li> <li>I’m excited to bring my life experience to the process of building fantastic looking websites.</li> <li>I’ve been a professional cook and gardener and am a life-long learner who's always interested in expanding my skills.</li> <li>Fourth list item</li> </ul>

I would expect that some CSS or JavaScript not shown here is responsible for the numbering.

To facilitate a complete analysis, make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here.

<ol> is a tag for ordered list, i.e. it is ordered, therefore it is numbered.

<ul> is a tag for an unordered list. Using <ul> rather than <ol> will not give numbers, but it will give bullet points. The bullet points can be removed by adding some CSS.
