About (request update)

After High School I went directly to college summer 1991 (Southern University A&M - Baton Rouge, LA). I studied Electrical Engineering (damn near quit 6 or 7 times - lol). During my college years my family moved from Arvada, CO (1993-94) to Orlando, FL. Dad got a job at Disney and mom at the Tupperware HQ in Orlando. I interned for Allen Bradley Engineering 1995 in Milwaukee, WI. Graduated Friday, Dec. 13, 1996 (what a glorious day) in EE. I landed a job with General Motors in Warren, MI (near Detroit) Worked there from 1997 - 1999. Resigned and started small dot com. I thought I would be a billionaire by now but may be in the next couple of years. ha ha ha. I found it more advantageous to move my company to a less saturated city that I was familiar with and could get a jump start in with my services. I moved to Baton Rouge, LA where my business took off!!! After the dot com bubble burst in 2000 I moved to Orlando, FL with my parents to get back on my feet. Found a few decent jobs but was laid off due to the 2001 Terrorist attacks and most recently the decline in sales as a result of the economy. I had always done web stuff so I restarted my web company full time (for the last year). Doing much better...happier!!!! I have a two kids and not married.

My business is really starting to take off...DXIdesign.com. I have several web projects that I'll be launching this year...so hopefully the billionaire part I mentioned earlier may really happen (atleast millionaire - ha ha ha).

Finished my Master's in Internet Marketing - Oct. 2010

Started on a Doctorate in Business Administration - Technology Entrepreneurship. Hope to finish 2013-14
