I've worn a lot of hats in my career... I was a technical and marketing resource
for Unisys, a systems engineer for Exxon and a business development consultant
for small businesses. Years ago I started my own consulting company,
Software Services, the fulfillment of a personal goal to not only be an
entrepreneur but to deliver personal quality services to my clients. I've worked
with clients in many capacities from designing programs to managing huge
projects.
When I started
Software Services my niche was
custom programming for banking and remittance systems. I really hate wasting my
time and the client's money so my motto has always been "do it right the first
time." No matter what the project, my clients know they can count on me to
get the job done, done right and done on time.
Great clients make any project fun and rewarding. Info on projects and clients
I've worked with are on my
Software Services site.
Travel
Travel has always been a passion of mine and Stephen and I have been fortunate
to have some great travel experiences in the line of work, mixing business with
pleasure around the U.S. and around the world. We've also had great recreational
trips we've planned ourselves. Like in business, I like saving time and money,
hate wasting time and overpaying. Some itineraries of our self guided trips and
great tips on those experiences are here on this site.

Travel has a great bonus - an education. Learning the history of a people and a
place turns a trip into more than a photo album at the end. While in France
we went to Normandy and the sites of Operation Overlord. This had personal
meaning to us because Sam (Steve's dad) landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day. He was
a Technical Sergeant in the 104th Medical Battalion, 29th Infantry Division.
