WORK EXPERIENCE
Began designing and programming computers in 1976 and have worked with them
consistently since then. Most of my work entailed designing test software programs and
hardware for the bio/medical field and the aerospace industry. I did take a couple of hiatuses to
start a couple of businesses in the industry with the exception of one which was a
clothing/accessory store.

The last 12 years before my retirement, I worked as a language, math, and reading
instructor for the State of Arizona. I developed and documented a teaching methodology which
produced excellent graduation rates and was eventually adopted by other teachers due to the
success rates obtained.
