Biography:
I grew up in San Diego, where I learned my love for science, engineering, the ocean, and surfing. I came to the San Francisco Bay area to attend college at U.C. Berkeley (Go Bears!), where I majored in Environmental Engineering and worked at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, writing LabVIEW software for controlling an X-Ray spectroscopy system and analyzing data -- that's how I got hooked on LabVIEW! I stayed in the Bay Area after college and moved out to San Francisco (by the beach, of course). Since college I have worked as a systems integration expert, using LabVIEW almost every day. For many years, I have also been an avid contributor to OpenG.org, where many individuals collaborate to develop LabVIEW libraries and software that are licensed as open source, making them freely available for everyone to use. I enjoy being a part of the LabVIEW community, which continues to provide valuable experiences and relationships.
Discussion Groups
I am active in all of them, but spend most of my time on the OpenG and LAVA Discussion Forums.
