======Introduction=======

I am 31 years old and have been a CNC Machinist at The Hilliard Corp for over 10 years. While i do still enjoy most of it, i found that i am far more interested in the computer and programming aspect of that position and have
noticed that i have become increasingly less interested in the mechanical side of machining. This fact is what has led me to pursue a degree in Computer Science - HPC. I have always enjoyed working and playing around with computers dating all the way back to my first PC (Acer desktop @25Mhz - yes MHz, with 4 MB of ram). So far i am really enjoying the programming classes i have taken so far and cant wait to get into more complex languages.
