Just like most people i started working after high school. Although I did take 3 semesters of courses at CSN, working was a priority. I have had many many jobs since graduating from Western. The very first job i had was at Target. Then after a couple other places i got a job via my drummer at an electrical sign shop. The Alpha Electric Sign Company was very interesting to me given my very scientific intuitive background. This is where I learned real blue collar... up at 5am... hard day's work.
At age 20 I had a car, was living on my own, working and taking courses in computer graphics. I landed a graphic artist job at another sign company called Nevada Sign. Computer graphics in 1999/2000 were simple! At this time i also worked at local FM radio station "107.5 Xtreme radio". That job was alot of fun, but a career in radio is very hard and i was insterested in pursuing that road. I really liked designing signs and did this until June of 2004. That's when I responded to an job ad in the paper that would change my life.

In June 2001 I was hired as a traveling computer technician for a gaming company called Millenium Games. After a month of training i was on my first trip to do maintenance at an Indian Casino in California. This was the first of many many trips i took in the next two and a half years working there. I ended up all over the U.S. Made 3 trips to England, Guam and Japan. I found some of the people and places facinating.
I eneded up racking up over 200,000 flier miles... free rental car days... free hotel stays, which was like a bonus for the restless travel I put up with. Being in London was probably my favorite place to visit. It's a place where everything is very different, as in thier way of life and how they do everyday things but still speak english. It wasn't too difficult getting around. I rode the subway there to get places, Londoners call it "The Underground" or "The Tube".
