How to do this w/o sounding like a resume...
Gradutated from San Diego State and started working in
the application development arena under heavy scrutiny from the DoD. Along the way, I
married my college sweetheart following a 7 year courtship (had to be certain) and settled
in the San Jose area.
After 11 years under the military mocroscope, I left the clandestine world and the
sun and moved my family (now grown to include 2 boys) to Intel Corp and the Portland area.
I no longer code applications or databases but manage acquisition business system
integrations. Quite a mouthful but also very challenging and rewarding. In this role, I
have traveled all over the world and actually did a round the world trip (unfortunately it
was done in 3 weeks - not something I would recommend!). My wife spent 10 years as a
budget controller and now has the harder job of running a home (tactical and strategic
planning, logistics, discipline...) She makes it look easy while I complain about my job!
We have been in the northwest for almost 8 years and truely enjoy what the area
provides although we all miss the sun and blue sky terribly.
Event or incident during high school I will never
forget...
1) "Hiding" Chuck Volonte's truck between the lockers.
2) The potato in the tailpipe incident!
