I started working at Intergraph in 1985 while finishing my ECE degree at UAH. I worked in each of the following groups from 1985 to 2000: Electronics, Publishing, Imaging, Visualization, and Plotting. In 2000, Plotting was purchased by Bentley and I went with them... Since then I've had two brief breaks of service (lapses in judgement on my part). After the first, I returned to Plotting. After the second, I was hired to work in the QVision group, working on the display core of MicroStation. This is a dream job for me, where I have the opportunity to work with family and long-time friends in an extremely challenging development environment.
