I have over 25 years experience working in the
computer and telecommunications industry domestically and internationally. I speak English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Mandarin fluently, with some Serbo-Croatian. Computers have always been a hobby and I collect
machines of different architectures just to compare their performance and
abilities; Alpha's (by the former Digital Equipment Corporation) will always
be my favorite. I keep up on the latest computer news and visit many sites
and communities daily to learn about the latest tools and security holes.
The industry is in a constant state of flux and it is a full time job staying
ahead of possible problems. I really enjoy the challenge.

· Provided cross platform solutions to business and institutional
customers
