Okay this is my history in all its glory yeah right.
I was born on Dec 15 on the tiny island of Guam.
I went to Elementary/Middle School in Santa Barbara '85, and high school in
Father Duenas '89.
As a kid I loved video games. My extreme favorite was the Star Wars game sit down that used pixel graphics. I would play that game 3
hours straight on one quarter. So because of video games I wanted to be involved in anything
computers. It was very repetitive granted
but I loved it anyway. (I found a perfectly good Star Wars game in SF at
the Cliff House) I got my first computer in Sixth Grade a TRS 80, also known as
Trash 80. Then in 8th grade I received an Apple IIC which would be my
computer till first year college. Needless to say my first language
was Basic.
In college, had to get a 386SX 16Mhz because IBM PC Compatible's were
standard back then. (Does IBM PC Compatible still apply) I had a
386sx 20Mhz notebook my junior year. I bought a 286 off my ex-girlfriend
just for the parts never did anything with it but it was cheap anyway. I had a
486dx66 sold that. Then a 486dx33 Compaq Aero. I still have most of
these PC's in parts. =P After that I've never bought a computer
again everything else has been provided by work.
In 1989, I left Guam for California. I went to college in
University of San Francisco '93 and received my degree in Computer
Science. In USF I worked for extra cash and experience doing Computer Lab
work, then doing System Administration of RS/6000. This is where I
became fascinated with Unix, internet type programming, and computer security
issues. I went back to get my Masters degree in CS at '96, at this level I
was interested in Windows Programming.
For work I interned at Legato Systems the summer of 92 doing QA work. I
also went back to Legato after graduating to do QA for Legato in June 93.
I went to nCUBE in Nov' 94 to do Technical Support of their Super
Computers. Then in Feb of 96 I left nCUBE to my current job at Pixion
(formerly called PictureTalk) as a Software Engineer doing mostly internet type
programming on Unix and NT in C/C++. It's a fun job.
(A more detailed would be to put my resume up here maybe later)
That's it for now.
