Nevada's Story
Life
Okay, this is gonna sound a bit dry, but these be the facts: I attended Wasco County Union High my first two years of high school and then moved to Yakima where I finished up at Eisenhower, graduating in 1987. I attended Western Washington University starting in the Fall of 1987, graduating in March 1993 with a degree in Math/Computer Science. While there, I took a year off to work an internship at Microsoft in their Product Support Services division from Sept. 1991 to August, 1992. After graduation, I worked for Aldus Corporation, located in Seattle, in their Technical Support division until they were acquired by Adobe in late 1994. I then went to work for Asymetrix Corporation, located in Bellevue, again in Technical Support. I transferred to software testing after about a year. I stayed there until May, 2000, when I returned to Microsoft as a software tester....Expand for more
I left in 2006 and worked at various companies until 2010 when I started at Big Fish Games. Coincidentally, I'm located in the same building as Memory Lane, of which Classmates is a part.
Other items that someone may find interesting:
-In 2006, I married a wonderful woman and we live with our two cats.
-In 2003 I fulfilled a lifelong goal and obtained my private pilot's license.
-Most of my "flying" is done on the ground as I ride my motorcycle, aka "the poor man's airplane."
-My motorcycle is a 2007 Yamaha FJR1300AE.
-I spend far too much time playing games on my computer and far too much money on the computer itself.
-I enjoy attending science fiction and fantasy fan conventions such as Norwescon but the frequency with which I do so has tapered off in recent years. Maybe I'm just getting old.
-My political views tend toward conservative/libertarian (with a small "l").
