I have worked in the technology and software industry for many years and have watched as computing technology and software have become ubiquitous in the world around us. I am delighted to be teaching at SPC where I hope to bring some of my knowledge and expertise to the students. After having received a Bachelors and Masters degrees in Computer Science from the University of Miami and Northwestern University, respectively, my career evolved from a hands-on software engineer to that of executive management of software development organizations.
