Kevin's Story
I joined the Army while still in High School and spent my 18th summer in Basic Training, AIT school at Ft Sam Houston and Jump school at Ft. Benning GA. I got out of the army in 1977 and I worked a couple of years in a warehouse loading trucks, to save for college. In 1980 I began school at Harper and Loyola. I worked as a doorman (bouncer) at The Snuggery while in school. I met my wife Tina there when she came in with some girls I knew. When we decided to get married, I dropped out of school and began working at an interconnect phone company. When AT&T was broken up in 1984, my company was purchased by Ameritech, which became SBC and then AT&T. I was promoted to Project Mana...Expand for more
ger in 1988 and Director of Project management in 1996. I went back to school at Roosevelt University and received my BSBA in Operations Management. I moved out of management into a voice engineering position in 1997 and have worked in this same position since then, but in 2006 I was laid off and went to work for EDS/HP. This past May, UAL decided to in source all of IT, so now I work directly for the airline. I have done IT projects all over the world and really love what I do. I am still married to Tina(26 years this past September) and have two children, Ryan 23 and Rachel, 21.We love to travel and I hope to be able to retire in 7-8 years and enjoy what is left of my life!
