Greetings! My name is Charles, but I prefer to go by Chuck so I don’t feel like my mother is scolding me. My early years sometimes feel confusing as my father spent 30 years in the US Army resulting in a family move for me and my three younger brothers an average of every 3 years until I was 25. Thus, I have lived all over the United States with extended time in Germany and Thailand including 5 high schools in 3 years skipping the 11^th grade.

I have over 40 years of computer experience with Burroughs, Digital Equipment, Compaq, HP, and Harris including mini and mainframe repair, programming, application consultant, system management, data center operations, outsourcing and IT project management of multi-million dollar projects.
