I am the second oldest of four children.  I have two younger sisters and 1 older brother who has Downs Syndrome.  I live with and care for my brother along with one of my sisters.  My other sister also lives in San Diego and assists with some of the caretaking duties.

In my personal time I focus on furthering my education in computer skills and keeping up on current events.  I've been fascinated by computers since high school where I specialized in computer science.  There happened to be a country wide computer contest which required that you write a computer program to enter.  I won the senior division of the contest and received a computer as the prize.  My personal goal is to complete all of the data base management certifications available.

Experience

The Edwards Associates - Director of Data Management

Maintaining the network of computers for a corporation is a challenging position. I focus on keeping our equipment current and up to date with the constant technology advances. Unfortunately, due to the nature of technology, much of my time is spent troubleshooting.

1998-present
Hughes Networks Systems - Database Management

My primary responsibility was to review the database systems and generate reports.  I also was responsible for receiving materials and managing the stockroom.

1990-1998
The Institute

The family environment of this workplace makes it very easy to do my job, and get things done.  The general feeling here is so non-stressful compared to other companies and positions. I find that I am able to sleep more and my health has improved.  In the past I have been too tired to pursue and extra curricular activities, but I now have that energy to focus on my stuides.
