Paul's Story
Surrattsville Class of 1966. Ohio State University, U.S. Navy, then to PGCC through 1972. Added courses at U of MD, Northern VA CC and Villanova. Entered the working world as a Computer Programmer in 1972, working my way up to owning my own IT consulting company in 1995. Now working in IT Project Management for a Richmond company. I'll likely keep doing this until I drop because I love it so much.
I am still married to my first wife (Sam) and we tied the knot in 1972. She graduated from La Reine and is a retired RN.
I have a married daughter who graduated with her PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Clemson in 2010. She works in Charleston, SC at the Medical University of SC.
All in all...pretty good.
I remember turning 18 in my Senio...Expand for more
r Year which was fortuitous due to the drinking age in DC being 18 at that time. I was popular among my friends. The guys I hung out with the most were Dan Hill, Ed Fink, and Mike Wierney. Had a few interesting experiences that included Mark LaMar too.
I became a parent late in my marriage. Alexis was born 10 years into it. I would not trade that experience ever.
Here's a crazy job experience:
Early in my career I switched jobs every 2 years or so. The only job I had I had from which I was let go was taken over by Muslim radicals the week after I left. They kept everyone there hostage for a week and beat some folks up. Those of you working in the DC metro area in the 70's may remember it. Glad I got the pink slip..I didn't like it much any way.
