I am a recent graduate of California State University of Fullerton where I obtained a B.S. degree in Political Science and American Studies.

First off, I have a BS in Computer Science from NC State and 30 yrs experience working at the same university and the last 15 yrs has been working with ERP systems and Identity Mgmt systems. 

I'm fascinated by the prospect of doing this as a career and learning more and more every day.

Fascinating stuff! 

This business is not an exact science so those who are the most successful at it usually are the ones who are trying the most.  

I hold a masters of science in accounting, and i have experience in the health care industry & Banking.
