Information about ME

This page is a little background about me and my life. It is very brief right now, but I will be adding more eventually.

Well, let me tell you a little bit about myself:

I am a 25 year old graduate from Iowa State University and a native of Des Moines, Iowa. I graduated in May 1995 with a Bachelor's in Management of Information Services (M.I.S.). I then ended up getting a job with EDS. EDS was originally started by Ross Perot who later sold the company to General Motors. Just this past year, EDS bought themselves back from GM and is once again its own entity. What does this mean for me? Nothing, really, except that after June 1998, I will no longer get the GM Vehicle Purchase option for buying a new GM vehicle.

I am currently a Unix and Windows NT System Administrator on the Neodata account here in Des Moines, IA. I maintain one Sparc server, and 3 Sparc workstations here in Des Moines, plus I handle all trouble calls for all Neodata locations, and I am on-call for Des Moines and Colorado once every 6 weeks. The Unix environment is fairly new to me, but I am picking it up pretty quickly as I go. It has definitely been fun and interesting.

When I am not at work, I spend the rest of my time with one of the following:

Check out this picture of me. I am the one on the far right. These are my 2 best friends Derek and Chad and I at a good friend's wedding this past year. Yes, we are a little inebriated and a little sun burnt. I have changed a little since that picture, since it was taken a 2 1/2 years ago.

If there is anything else you would like to know, please feel free to email me.
