      I was born as the son of a waitress and a roughneck (a roughneck is actually someone who does the dirty work on oil rigs) in a small rural town in Kansas.
I moved between different towns in Kansas and ended up graduating from high school in Lewiston, Idaho.
Always curious about just about everything, my initial majors in college were in Electrical Engineering, Math, and French.
My last degree was a Master’s in Computer Science.
     I started work as a programmer with the Agricultural Department at Kansas State University but my first full-time job was with Bell Laboratories in Westminster, Colorado.
After a while, a friend and I started a company which evolved into a “virtual corporation” — everyone working SOHO — where I was the VP of Engineering (of a small company).
Presently, I work as a Programming Manager for Cisco.
