Hey Folks;
I am a disabled veteran going to Mohave Community College in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. I am 59 years old and was a purchasing director in the semiconductor broker industry for about 12 years from 1984 to about 1996. My last position was at Globelle, Inc. in Minnesota as a Senior Product manager for CPUs and Memory upgrades. I have been more involved in the hardware side of the business and have never programmed anything. I am going to school for an AA in Computer Information Systems and will be taking a variety of computer oriented classes for the next 4 or 5 semesters, (I am in my 2nd). At the moment, I am taking Data Base Management and have been introduced to MySQL and Access 2010 as our DBMS. I am knowledgeable enough to be dangerous and I am excited about learning more about the Information Systems trade. I expect to graduate when I'm 61 and start my own consultancy here in Lake Havasu after I graduate. Also, I grew up in the sixties and remember most of it, so I'm ahead of the game. Anyway, these are just a few tidbits of my life and hello to the Forum, it looks like a good one. And thanks, Jon, for providing a venue for students and professionals alike to interact and maybe learn something. Late and Peace, VanWyck.
