Recent Activity  -

Bio 

I have worked in the IT field both on the systems side and network side (and as a DOD contractor) for the past 25+ years. Most of that time has been spent on military installations in Okinawa, Japan. 10 years of initial service was spent on active duty while the rest has been as a reservist IMA in the pacific.
