I'm a friend of Ward's and he's talking me into this wiki thing. In turn, I'm talking Ward into helping my cousin Pam Edens use Federated Wiki in her classroom. Things are about to get interesting.
A beer is a good offer to learn more about me, for now this is what I will expose.
I have a checkered background. Two stints at the University of Kansas eventually lead to a bachelors degree in Radio, TV, Film through the Speech Department in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
After 4 years as an air traffic controller and an illegal strike, I returned for a 3rd stint at the University of Kansas and graduated with a Master of Science in Computer Science.
In the years between graduate school and now I have worked in telecommunications and healthcare as an employee and for IBM, the former Arthur Andersen and myself as a consultant.
I am currently diversifying and reinventing myself to begin this next phase of my career.
