College/Job
Experience
I graduated from Stockton
State College, now known as The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey.
After high school graduation and before Stockton I took a side trip to Brookdale
Community College. I spent 2 years at Brookdale and then transferred to
Stockton. Altogether I spent 6 years in college. I majored in Computer Science/Information
Systems throughout my college career.
After graduation my first job was as a Technical Services Specialist. In other words, I was working on a helpdesk. I continued working on a helpdesk for a few years and then started working at Sony Theatres. This is where I actually started working as a trainer, in addition to working on the helpdesk.
How
did I get to Drew?
Well, after working for Sony
Theatres I moved to Maryland to be with my fiancé, now husband.Shortly
after the wedding, a career opportunity arose at Lucent
Technologies in Murray Hill, New Jersey,
for Kevin and we decided to move back home. Kevin is an electrical engineer
with a B.S. in computer engineering from Lehigh
University. Currently, Kevin is working on the Atlanta
tm chip set.
While living in Maryland I was working for a company that supported computers used by Navy personnel and civilians. This is where I met Jonathan Mazur. Jonathan is a graduate of Drew and still has close contact with his college friends. Once we decided to move back home Jonathan suggested that I apply for the Training Coordinator position open at Drew.
What have I been up
to at work?
Recently
Drew
has signed a contract with Macromedia
and we have started to use and teach their software programs for creating web
pages.
This
means that we are now teaching Dreamweaver,Flash and Fireworks. I have started
to use Dreamweaver, as a matter of fact all of my web pages are created with
DW. By
no means am I an expert, I would classify myself as a beginner leaning towards
intermediate level. I have also started to learn Flash, which is an animation
program. If you are interested in seeing a movie I created using Flash click
here.
As you can see it is a very basic movie. Flash is a complex program but it can
create very cool things.
