Field Engineering Mgr for Motorola. Whenever you see a cellular tower for Verizon, Sprint, ALLTEL, Nextel, and few other smaller networks there is a good chance myself or one of my guys has been there and worked on the equipment.

I have Associates in Electronic Engineering from ITT tech Ft Wyane (class of 85) been working in cellular ever since (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) I need 8 1/2 more years then I can retire with full pention and start a new career doing something I really like to do. What I'm not sure but it won't have anything to do with a communications company!

I work for Visa too, but they are paying me.
