ABOUT ME
A brief intro about me
Hello, I have worked in the military as a communications officer and been both a six sigma analyst and project manager since leaving active duty. I've lead/managed sections up to 28 people and worked for the equivalent of a city manager as an executive assistant. I've managed multi-million dollar projects, was a lab manager for network test lab and have been a team member & lead for high profile projects.
As a freelance front-end web developer I've developed sites and updated existing sites. I work with a web designer when needed, handling their payment as a package deal. I do site maintenance and development both as a flat fee and hourly billing--I work with the client to determine the best approach.
When not working I can be found out with friends, rock climbing (typically at a rock gym), playing soccer (once again indoor year-round) or shooting pics.

EDUCATION
1996 - 2000US Air Force Academy, CO
Bachelors Degree - Operations Research
Bachelor's degree in Operations Research(OR) is the application of quantitative techniques to managerial decision-making.
Operations research, as a discipline, arose from the need to determine optimal resource allocation and assist decision makers during World War II. Groups of mathematicians, physical scientists and economists were assembled to perform studies that would provide quantitative input for commanders. The results of their efforts were impressive, and soon thereafter, the commercial sector realized the power of these new planning techniques.
Using mathematics to model real world systems was nothing new; physicists and economists had been doing it for years. What defined this new field called OR was its focus on the operations of organizations. Not only were traditional mathematical modeling methods used, such as statistics and probability, but new modeling methods, such as mathematical programming and queuing theory were created.
Operations research, therefore, entails the development and application of new quantitative modeling methods to real management and economics problems. This is an exciting field—one that attracts curious problem-solvers who are strong in mathematics and computer science and are eager to solve real world problems.

Web Development Certificate
A front-end developer is a programmer that codes the front end of a website. Typically, the front-end developer's job is to convert website design files into raw HTML, JavaScript (JS) and/or CSS code. This includes the basic website design/layout, images, content, buttons, navigation and internal links. The end result is code that serves as the website's front-end structure, which is used by a back-end developer to add business logics and connect databases and processes, among other processes.
A front-end developer is responsible for ensuring that a website's visual front end is free of errors and looks exactly as designed. A front-end developer also ensures that a website has the same visibility across different computing and mobile Web browsers.
Similarly, in software applications, a front-end web developer creates the graphical user interface (GUI) that enables access to the software's back-end features and capabilities.
