I joined the USAF in 1976. After tech school, I was stationed at the Pentagon doing Cryptology/secure communication for 3 years.
I worked at the same job at the State Department for 2 years before moving to the Atlanta area.

Then, I started at Delta Air Lines in December 1982, working in the data communication department. For 6 years, I traveled the Delta cities installing the back room servers for the gates and reservation department.
When Delta bought Pan AM, I traveled through Europe and Japan converting the Pan Am equipment for Delta’s.

Now, I work for Travelport.
We are the front end system for Orbitz, Expedia, Delta, Northwest and many other booking systems. When you book a trip on any of these, it goes through our Data Center at the Atlanta Airport. I work in Windows Server Support.

I have been married and divorced twice.
I have two wonderful daughters: Kelli is 31, graduated from Kent State, works in Marketing at Chick-Fil-A. She is married to the shop teacher and football coach at Tallmadge H.S. They have two daughters. Kelli and her husband live in Diamond, Ohio. He loves the trek between Tallmadge and Diamond!
My second daughter, Amy, is 25. She graduated from the University of Georgia, and works at the World of Coke, in Atlanta, as an event organizer.

I have traveled to so many places there are too many to number. I have been in all 50 states, plus I have been to St. Croix, Puerto Rico, St.Thomas, London, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Tokyo, Nagoya, Hamburg, Rio de Janeiro, and more.
I have lived in San Antonio, Washington D.C., Arlington, Virginia; Dale City, Virginia; Woodbridge, Virginia; Powder Springs, Georgia; and Peachtree City, Georgia.
I currently live in Moreland, Georgia on 8 acres in the woods, in a 30 year old log house with a timber wolf 'hybrid' dog, and the most wonderful woman, named Tanya, who I have been with for the last 10 years.

In my free time, I work out 5 days a week before work, cut up trees for firewood, and watch football.

And, for those who have seen my hair, it is still halfway down my back and I have no plans to cut it anytime soon.
