A software engineer by training, my graduate work combined medical imaging with synthetic holography and stereoscopy, resulting in the Master's Thesis

An Investigation of Holographic and Stereographic Techniques for the Three-Dimensional Display of Medical Imagery.

Not a lot of call for that in the private sector.

My secondary area of graduate work --

• Distributed & Fault Tolerant Systems

became my career path, and remains one of my professional interests to this day.

My other professional interests include:

• High Availability Systems
• Telecommunications
• RDBMS & OODBMS Systems
• Quality Management Systems
• Software Process Improvement
• Photo-realistic Scene Synthesis
