Work History

I like to describe my work history as a journey up the “information food chain.”  I began my career as an instrumentation and controls engineer, designing and maintaining automated machine control systems.  As technology advanced, I became more involved in Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, interfacing with them to build ever more advanced data collection and reporting systems.  Eventually, I transitioned into developing enterprise software and database applications (primarily focused in areas of process and quality control).
