I began my career as an idea man. I originally majored in Advertising at Middle TN State University and seemed to have a natural ability to create attractive programs and marketing models. My minor was Computer Science and this too seemed to be something I could easily grasp and advance my skill levels in. Understanding computers and trouble-shooting them became a passion and after meandering from computer hardware, to networking, to application development, I finally ended up changing my major to Information Systems Technologies. After several years of website development, I was promoted to Project Manager. As a project manager, I would still develop sites (mostly frontmatter) but begain my training as a project manager. Shortly thereafter I was again promoted to a Supervisor, leading a team of project managers, and recently was promoted to manager overseeing all aspects of Systems and Applications for my company.
