I have been in the real estate business since 1994.  I began as an agent a month after my daughter was born.  After two years as an agent, I began managing the office.  A couple of years later, I made the move to the Home Office.

I've worked as a Technology Trainer, in the "DotCom" division, the director of the Business Intelligence Group, and now I am the Vice President for Business and Technical Development.

"Business and Technical Development" is a pretty broad area.  Most of what I do is to look for new ways and places to display our listings on the Internet; develop new tools for our agents to use; and provide a focal point for the many projects that the Real Estate people have ongoing - all while maintaining the functions of the Business Intelligence Group.  It provides a new and different challenge almost daily.

I enjoy a variety of things, though the list varies depending on my mood.  I enjoy reading, especially techno thrillers, historical biographies, and science fiction.  I enjoy all genres of music (except Country and Rap) - though what I listen to at any given time depends on what mood I'm in.

Recently, I have developed an interest in geneaology and have been developing my family tree.  You can see it here.  I've also started a blog about the project.  You can see the blog here.  Feel free to browse through either one.  Who knows, maybe we're related!
