Emerson's Niche

History

Born in Chicago, Illinois in the mid 60's, he was quickly and mercifully removed from that environment and, after bouncing around places such as Buffalo, New York, and somewhere in Southern California, eventually wound up in Honolulu, Hawaii, where he grew up, attending Punahou School, and enjoying life with a multitude of friends.

After graduating from Punahou, he got as far away from Honolulu as he could, by pursuing a degree in Computer Systems Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, a 4 year period representing one of the most miserable times of his life. :-P

Once getting his degree, he joined the Air Force to repay the government for the tuition it had coughed up for him. His first and only assignment was at Los Angeles Air Force Base, California. He was stationed there for over six years, going from a lowly contract negotiator (as a 2nd Lieutenant) to an Automation Officer, as a Captain. He left the Air Force when forced between quitting and moving to South Carolina. Oh, here's a little Air Force joke.

Since then, he's been working in Southern California in computer support, system administration, and QA. Recently, he returned to the Air Force, and is enjoying his time back in the service.
