Personal Information and Experience

Originally from northern California, I graduated from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles with a BS in Computer Engineering and Computer Science. I have accepted a position as a software engineer with Lockheed Martin and will be moving to Pennsylvania later this year.

As a side job, I maintain my roommate's film production company's website, [http://www.mirrorimagesltd.com/ Mirror Images LTD].
