About me

I have worked in IT for 36 years. All my experience has been in higher education. I started out as a computer operator and moved up the ranks into programming, systems manager, director, and now Associate Dean. We recently migrated from our legacy system which runs on a Unisys MCP environment to a cloud-based system called CampusNexus Student by Anthology.
