Sam's Story
Life
Since graduating from school, I've been involved in the technology field. I started out as a PC tech for Computerland in Whitter at the old Quad, working my way up the ladder. I been married and divorced. I have a 13 year old and 6 year old daughter. Both girls are involved in all kinds of sports like their dad, and the little one has even more energy.
School
After graduating from high school I went to Pepperdine University in Malibu. Great place to visit, but very difficult to study there. After 1 year, I went to Rio Hondo for a year and started to work for Computerland. After a year at Rio, I transferred to Cal State Dominguez Hills, tooled around there for a while and took a full time job with Rockwell. While at Rockwell, I started back into school again going to University of Redlands. I finished up my BS in Information Syste...Expand for more
ms, fully paid for by Rockwell.
Workplace
My first major job was with Rockwell International in Downey. I started working there in 1987 and stayed for 8 years in the IT department. In 1995, I got hooked up with LA Cellular which eventually became AT&T Wireless. I am currently working as the IS Manager for a sporting good firm in La Canada. It's a very rewarding position and the people that I work with are great. I oversee a network of 47 retail store locations throughout 3 states with 1 major data center in La Canada.
Military
I thought about it and almost signed up with the Marines OTC, but they said I couldn't be the pilot because of my eyesight. I'm not sure why they wouldn't let me fly a multi-million $ plane when my eyesite was 20/400 corrected to 20/20 with contacts?!?!?!?! Go figure. So that was the extent of my military career.
