About Me

- graduated from NCSU in 1999 with BS in Electrical Engineering and BS in Computer Engineering.

- started career in test engineering and software engineering, moved into software quality assurance, and is now works with computer systems validation for INC Research, a clinical research organzation.

- first experienced losing his job in August 2003. Upon the suggestion of his counselor with the outplacement service that he look at the Triangle Networking Group as a resource during his job search, he started attending meetings in December 2003 and continued to attend regularly because he looked forward to every meeting as an opportunity to learn, talk with people and, more importantly, help someone in any way he could. When the opportunity in Spring 2005 arose to assume the leadership of the TNG, he took it because the TNG is a valuable resource for many professionals, and we can help many professionals in crises through information and resources. He now serves as the Executive Director of the TNG and strives to promote professional success in our local professional and business community.

- is a social philanthropist with his own software startup company, legal services and identity theft protection business, and LinkeIn consultancy.
