In this economy, people who seek jobs by the traditional route face enormous competition. I advise companies to pursue a non-traditional "Blue Ocean" strategy in their markets. So why should I do any different? In short, this web site is part of an online campaign to market myself. By "market myself," I do not mean "shamelessly promote myself"! I do mean "actively seek situations where my skills, experience and expertise will be of value".

Although I have knowledge of computer hardware, my background is in software engineering. I have a master's degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Michigan, and I worked as a software engineer at Intel Corporation for almost seven years.

More specifically, my experience is in internet software. I worked at Corillian for ten years, where I helped build web sites for banks, credit unions, and other financial institutions---some of the largest in the world.

As you can imagine, internet banking customers have strict needs for security. My expertise for the past two and a half year has been built in internet security---making sure you and only you have access to sensitive information on a web site. \ I also helped make sure security measures don't make it difficult or inconvenient for you to access your own information!

Having had some success in the stock market, in 2005 I incorporated Himalaya Capital LLC.
