I thrive on being part of innovation, and am constantly seeking to grow in knowledge and understanding of how things work and of new technologies and how to interact with them in ways never before imagined. I enjoy working in environments that encourage free-thinking as well as one that is open to collaboration between different individuals to accomplish a common goal.
Having spent almost 20 years in the technology industry professionally, and over 25 years as a hobby, I still find time for "geeking" out on my family and coffee.
