From 1991 to 1998 I worked my way up from Intern to Senior Member of Technical Staff at Locus Computing / Platinum Technology. The details are in the other sections, but in summary I spent a great amount of time writing scripts in Perl for testing, debugging and tracing threads in a large parallel operating system to enable us to delicately modify the kernel and networking code. I also worked with customers to learn how to reproduce their reported bugs. The environment was Unix, the languages were Perl, C, and C++. My coworkers were Software Architects and other Engineers. When our son was born in April of 1997 I chose to take a sabbatical from the work force and focus on his care. I quickly dedicated myself as a Volunteer with his schools (Art program director, Classroom volunteer, Band Uniform Mom), the Boy Scouts of America(Den Mother, Committee Chair, Assistant Scoutmaster, Merit Badge Counselor), Project Wildlife (animal rescue and rehabilitation) and Mira Mesa Monster Manor (haunted entertainment). In each of my volunteer positions my ability to creatively communicate, solve complex issues, mediate, brainstorm, and solve problems led me into leadership/management roles after a short time. I have been recognized by my community and the BSA as a successful volunteer leader. I enjoy working on intellectually challenging projects and with a wide variety of personalities. Focusing on learning a new technology, figuring out how/why software and hardware works (or is broken) honestly captivates me. I am an excellent fit for someone who needs an open minded, technical, thoughtful and thorough person. Building great teams and working together efficiently in fun, positive environments have been the keys to my management effectiveness.

Coordination of team efforts to provide web services and event planning to the Gaming community in a start-up environment. Tracking and reporting, from brainstorming to completion of tasks using Asana, skype, slack and other tools for remote team communication.

Designed and implemented new features for a web based form data collection facility using Perl/CGI, HTML, Javascript, SQL. Designed, implemented and maintained conversion of application from Perl/CGI and HTML to Java/JSP multi-tiered server and COM Add-In client. Designed, implemented and maintained VB 6.0 COM Add-Ins for the following Microsoft Office 2000 applications; Access, Excel, FrontPage and Outlook. Managed a release and downtime schedule for a high availability web application.

1995-1998: Transitioned from maintenance project to a porting project. Porting from NT to UNIX, in C++. Worked in three different environments HP, AIX, Solaris, with different compilers, gcc and CSet++ as well as trying the HPC++ compiler. Gained insight into the level of support for C++ code in UNIX environments. With very little supervision came up to speed quickly on NT applications, C++ and the differences between NT and three different UNIX environments, AIX, Solaris, and HPUX. The NT application was written with the Borland C++, I have worked on porting it to AIX using CSet++, and Solaris using G++. The port to HPUX 9.x and 10.x required quite a bit of adaptation and educational reading/research.

1994-1995: Paragon operating system, kernel bug fixing in the networking code, UNIX and C.Additional education via UCSD in TCP/IP. Worked on many other areas of the Paragon operating system as well as the networking area, but networking bugs were my specialty.1993-1994: UNIX, C, kernel work on the Paragon fixing bugs and verifying the quality of bug fixes.As a member of a maintenance team a moderate amount of customer contact is required and always handled with excellent communication skills and professionalism. Earned a "Make it Happen" award for participating in the development and presentation of a demo at Uniforum 93 under extreme time pressure. 1992-1993: Responsible for build and test quality assurance of a massively parallel UNIX operating system maintenance project. Monitored weekly builds and tested for regressions. Coordinated many tasks using my ability to be interrupt-driven while maintaining perspective on prioritized goals, without losing track of any tasks.

In charge of data backup and retrieval and system administration functions. Make and run cables for new systems and terminals. Performed hardware diagnostics on PS/2, PC Clone and RS6000. Made frequent hardware additions and changes on IBM PS/2 and PC clone formats. Installation and maintenance of AIX , applications, and/or MS-DOS on PS/2, RS6000 and PC clones. Programmed an inventory tracking system including database functions and user friendly curses interface in C under AIX. Managed WAN of Unix, DOS, OS/2 machines. Wrote and maintained shell scripts.
