ABOUT

I have had the honor of working in many different fields with one constant, technology. I have been a communications expert in Tikrit, Iraq and a Chief Engineer of a television station in Bend, Oregon, with many interesting jobs in between. This has granted me the opportunity to learn a wide range of skill sets. Some of those skill sets are, IT management, front and backend web development, video and graphics editing, radio and electronic repair, most of these I have taught myself or had limited instruction from which to work with, so my research skills are exceptional. I spend the majority of my free time with my fiancé in beautiful Bend, Oregon usually chasing our dog. Otherwise, you can find me keeping up to date on the latest technology news and trends.
