Now a bit about me.

My email address that I daily check is keevint@yahoo.com

I am a 4th generation American of Japanese descent.   Born in HI, raised and attended school, both high school and college, in Southern California.   Had my first job at a CPA firm in 1966 as a programmer/analyst and worked part time until school/sport activities made it prohibitive.

What do you do when you went to college for chemistry?   This is California.   I worked for a group that did studio work.   Biggest accomplishment was the circuit to sync the cameras to the video monitors on the bridge of Star Trek II.   I worked for the medical industry in research and development for American Hospital Supply (Baxter Labs)and Hyland Travanol and that's what a chemist does from 1976 to 1983.

Joined Sperry/Unisys   (just Sperry then)   in 1983 and was soon transferred to corporate headquarters in PA in 1985.   Positions had been from a technician, electronic specialist, design engineer, test and certification engineer for data entry and mainframe systems.   Changed to customer support (tiers 1 thru 3) for Unix product lines for H/W and OS's when the writing appeared on the wall about "distributed processing".   I continued to work for them for over 10 years until the position moved to MN but I declined to.

Upon separation, started independent as K and LM enterprises where for over 10 years, continued in the computer field working the range of programming, systems administration, and customer support.   These positions were for clients from the DoD, large healthcare groups, small office installations, and for periods of a few months to a few years.   Though this may sound adventurous, it can be exhausting having had 12 addresses in 10 years.

Presently seeking positions in customer service or entry to mid-level systems administration (knowing that a systems administrator has clients called the employees).

Interested?
