Scott's Story
I am a long way from my hometown of Oldsmar, FL and the Tampa Bay Area, now living in the Dallas/Fort Worth metro area in Texas.
I worked my way through High School and College starting my career with the City of Safety Harbor where I found that I had an aptitude for technology, specifically computer programming. I left the city to take a job in Connecticut for a software development company. I decided that CT was to expensive (and boring), so I took a consulting position in Dallas, TX. During my 20+ years in Dallas I worked as a computer programmer, project manager, and now a software portfolio/program manager.
While my career has progressed over the years going from a utility billing clerk to a portfolio manager, my reason for working...Expand for more
has always been that, "I work to live, not live to work". So, playing has always been my priority, not working.
I play in many different ways; traveling is always fun and I have come to LOVE sea cruises, traversing a local lake in my sailboat "The Grindylow" (figures I would take up sailing after leaving FL), constructing stained glass pieces (lamps/panels/windows), music (keyboard and listening), theater (watching), technology (games/computers/toys), and anything else I have not tried before.
I have two kids (the four-legged kind) both are rescues and happend to be Wire Fox Terrorists (Terriers); Sophie and Sparky.
I have a partner, Carl, that shares the adventures of my life and times. He keeps up well despite being 12 years my junior.
