Mark's Story
Life
After high school graduation I went to Louisiana Tech where I graduated from their Electrical Engineering program. I enjoy going to Jamaica 3 times a year. In 1990 my daughter was born, I am lucky enough to still spend tons of time with her. She and I take 1 to 3 vacations a year together (not to Jamaica), now she is going to Louisiana Tech.
I hope everyone is doing well. Mark
School
I went to Pierce Downer Grade school and Mrs. Goodman for 1st and 2nd grade, after that it gets a little fuzzy(Herman, Johnson, Campbell). I know I missed a lot of school, I did not find out until much later that oil heat causes my sinuses a lot grief. My parents heated our house with oil until 1964 or so.
College
I went to Louisiana Tech in northern Louisiana. It was nothing like Ba...Expand for more
ton Rouge or New Orleans. There were 8 guys to every girl. I was in ROTC for Freshman year, which made getting dates pretty hard. I succeeded and met my wife to be my junior year. We lived here in Illinois, but eventually she moved back south without me.
I visited campus again in 2005, that was pretty cool experience. The even have a paving brick with my name on it. Now I go quite a bit since my daughter is there.
Workplace
Wow, two jobs since I graduated college. Rockwell-Wescom for 13.5 years and Westell for 20 years. I was an electrical engineer until 2003, when I moved into sales. Just a few more years until retirement. Not sure what I will do then, but I have several ideas.
Military
Not me, the closest I got was 1 year of Air Force ROTC while in college.
