I graduated from high school determined to be a CPA. My advisor my first year of college was the Director of Computing Services. He talked me into taking Intro to Data Processing. That three hour course changed my life! I changed my major, graduated with a degree in Computer Science with a minor in Accounting. I spent the first half of my career in various software development capacities and the second half in Management.

In 2003 I was diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure, two years later my Doctors retired me. For the last eight years I have been a stay at home dad, shuttling kids, helping with homework and cooking meals. This is NOT what I ever saw myself doing after I retired, but it affords me a lot of time to play with my toys when the girls are in school. In all, it isn't a bad gig if you can get it

I married a CPA most boring parties ever.....glad you got out, saved one soul that way. Your curse in the end was your blessing, your family is the best way to spend time....good gig!
