Quick Summary of Highlights
* Father, mother, brother dead 1996, 2003, 2015 respectively. * Undergraduate degree, sociology, Shepherd University, intended to make sense of life on this planet, especially America. * Asperger syndrome diagnosis close to the end of graduate study at Marshall University. * Earned a Master's degree, social research, which failed, which combined with a diagnosis of Asperger syndrome, convinced the state of Maryland to pay for my computer training. Social research is excellent because that is how knowledge is created, scientifically, and if you have a passionate interest it is your job to be fluent in it for the past five years and continuing: subject matter expert. * 13 years experience in Web development and to a lesser extent Web design, Section 508, E-commerce. First job was eleven years. Had security clearance before leaving first job. * Emotionally devastated 2013. Did not pass interviews and clearance died from non use. Thank you, Raquel Torres Walter, for setting the record straight once and for all. I had trusted the word of a friend with a chip on her shoulder about weight, and with her marriage collapsing and ultimately being assaulted in her sleep, crashed and burned before I did. It is contagious. * Unsuccessful attempt to work as an H&R Block tax preparer even though, of course, the training was a piece of cake. * Developing computer skills on my own. Thank you Mike Grohowski. Trying to work again and seeking advice from Workforce WV on a difficult situation. No imminent danger of destitution. * After moving to West Virginia 29 January 1988, finally left 28 February 1998 to work six months in the Census Bureau. GS 14 boss was a bully. But living in Greenbelt brought me to the attention of Maryland Rehabilitation Services and hence the computer training. * 1999-2002, lived in Greenbelt MD with mom. * 2002, lived 11 years in Alexandria, VA. * Have lived about five years in WV after crashing and burning in my job April 2013. * 2.5 years in West Virginia warehouse doing nothing remotely near what I am worth. Enough chatter! Go study.
