I graduated from Warren Wilson College in May, 1999 where I worked in the college's unique Work Program. My first semester I was the assistant to the Minister to Students, which involved organizing, office skills, a great deal of writing and creating a department web page. Having taught myself web design, I was recruited as Student Webmaster and charged with taking the modest beginnings of a College Web Site and transforming it into the site we have today. This effort required me to coordinate with the Dean of Admissions and Network Systems Administrator to create the site and to train others in the expanding crew. With this Unix experience, I soon was installing and maintaining the operating systems and software that run the college's network, such as mail, web, Samba (SMB), name (DNS), NIS (password) and FTP services. Other duties included hardware repair, software installation, training and setting up Windows networks. Responsibilities my last year focused on supervising the Computer Crew which included training, scheduling, giving work assignments and facilitating weekly crew meetings.

Prior to attending Warren Wilson, I held full time positions which required supervisory and public interaction skills. I worked very long hours as a waiter in a busy restaurant where I assisted manager in assuring closing tasks were performed as a shift leader and was awarded quarterly area "All-Star" award 3 times. Prior to this, I worked as a Supervisor at a Marketing Research company where I monitored and evaluated Telephone Market Researchers performance and techniques and then counseled Researchers to improve performance and submitted evaluations. As a project supervisor, I was required to maintain morale, organize sample and interview data and submit reports and suggestions to project managers. Required the use of Query statistical software, as well as Quattro and Word Perfect on PC/DOS and Alpha Micro Systems Pick 64 systems.

I have spent a great deal of my lifetime serving in leadership capacities in non-profit organizations. I have held several positions within Unitarian Universalist Churches I have attended and at the National level, including serving on the Program Counsel, Worship Committee, Young Adult Network and as Treasurer. I was a Telephone Crisis Intervention Counselor and also ran a youth group which ministered to sexual minority youth. In High School, I volunteered at the South Florida Science Museum where I gave science demonstrations, taught computer classes, handled pythons and too many other things to mention. At 13 the youngest person ever allowed to operate public planetarium performances. It might sound odd to have spent one's adolescence surrounded by Ph.D.'s, but I learned a great deal there.
