About Me

Personal Note

Hello, I am writing this page as a way for those visiting this site to get to know me on a somewhat personal level.  I was born in Evanston, Illinois and lived there through my early childhood.  At the age of eighteen I moved to Ohio and attended school at Kent State University. I stayed there for two years before moving back to Illinois, taking a position at a company titled EMS (Efficient Market Solutions).  This was my first IT position and I was a operations analyst performing data validation and loads for a marketing company.  in 2000 I moved to Las Vegas, due to personal reasons, and secured a position with Konami gaming where I worked as a technical lead before moving on to Jerry's Nugget Casino as a database analyst.  From there I began working in data, learning different ways to arrange, quantify and analyze information.  This is where the love for the work was fostered and I began my career.

 

Hobbies and Interests

I enjoy hiking, bike rides and writing.  I am a published author and I love reading graphic novels and altering stories to see different outcomes.  I walk with my dog daily, his name is McGregor and we go for walks that cover close to five miles.
