About (Summary)

I graduated High School back in 1997 as a National Merit Scholar. I attended Indiana University from August of 1997 to June of 2000 graduating with a Finance and Accounting degree with a International Studies concentration. I speak a little bit of Spanish and German. I worked at Bank One which became JP Morgan Chase until January of 2008. I was a caregiver for a number of years to both my ailing father and newborn son. After my separation and divorce, I continued to bounce around from call center to call center being thoroughly underemployed until rejoining academia in 2020. The pandemic's disruption, and unemployment's delay in approving my benefits were the godsend I needed to get back into school where I belong.

Grad School Interests

I wouldn't mind pursuing electrical engineering much further. If we can get these bridges built and the planet saved, I also have dreams about electro magnetic propulsion and spherically shaped aircraft.

Intended Job Path

I had a dream about turning bridges into Renewable Energy Power stations that would decentralize the power grid and rebuild our crumbling infrastructure. I intend on finding a way to miracle such bridges into existence. What I saw in my dreams wouldn't just generate electricity, but also regenerate the very land and water around them using the by-products of steam turbines and anaerobic digestors. I have no idea what job path gets me there, but I know I won't stop trying until I do. This is my purpose in life to help save the planet for the son I never get to see!

Hobbies

I am a prospiracy theorist that enjoys gardening, reading, writing, and promoting socialist ideas being incorporated into capitalism (i.e. maximum wages for CEOs). I got tired of complaining and futilely looking for ways to identify and stop culprits. Instead I have focused on coming up with my own theories on how to create the more equitable world of which Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke! Hence, creating the term prospiracy theorist. That is really my passion. I want to build a whole new world!
