	American Red Cross        	1994 – 1999.

Originally I worked in administration for the Health and Safety Department at
the Yakima Chapter, but, soon after I became the IT.  I did quite a bit of
hardware work during that time, along with managing the network. In 1997, I was
trained as an instructor of the American Red Cross database software called
CHERS, which allowed me to teach classes through out the U.S.  At the same time I
became the IT Lead for the Washington State Red Cross. 


	Comtronic Systems        	 1999 – 2000.

I worked with 3 different applications at Comtronics, Property Manager, Property
Manager Edge, & Contract Collector.  Property Manager automates the entire
process of property management — from receiving payments to printing checks.  
Property Manager Edge was an updated version of Property Manager.  Property
Manger’s platform was FoxPro, and, Property Manager EDGE is an updated version of
Property Manager, redone in Visual FoxPro. Contract Collector automates
installment loan management.
