Started my journey at "Vandy" (Vanderbilt Tn.) in Bio-Med/EE double major...low GPA as I was busy getting straight A's in Beer, pizza and women.

Transitioned into Flying at Shields Aviation in Jacks. Fl. Instructed in Maine during the winter (don't try to make a living doing that)!

Then onto a couselor position with "Aviation Challenge - Top Gun" at NASA space camp in Huntville Al.

Flight instructor at Penn St. Pa. to pay my way through Mech. Eng. degree there. Just as I was cresting 1000 hours of teaching primary students how to "slam" ...err I mean land - I figured it was time to focus on my engineering carrer.

Which brings us to Software Engineering in Western PA. - being a sim addict.
