Hello, after graduating from Drexel University I attended Drexel University majoring in Computer Science. I held numerous part-time technology positions at the University. However, during my second year co-op, I was offered a full time position with a technology firm in NJ. I became Manager of Software Development and developed several large scale commercial systems. After seven years of systems development and management, I was hired by Drexel University to work as a Senior Network Programmer. During this time, I started by own consulting firm and provided system design and architecture services. One of my clients was the David Sarnoff Research Center in Princeton New Jersey. My relationship with the lab developed into a full time positions and I rose to Manager of Enterprise Systems and Network Engineering. After seven years of driving strategic initiatives and projects, I was then offered a position at one of the top investment bank on Wall Street where I am currently employed. I eventually graduated from Drexel University with a BS in Computing Technology.
I got married in 1988 to a wonderful women from Virginia. We have been happily married for 20 years and are blessed with two sons, Joel Jr. and Montaque. My oldest son is attending Michigan State University studying Economics and Psychology. My youngest is a senior in high school and plans to attend SVA in NYC.
I am a licensed minister and musician. I was blessed to co-found two christian jazz/fusion bands and work on several recording projects. I have a video/film design studio and currently working on a documentary on the Underground Railroad in Georgia.
Love you guys, can't wait to see you all.
