I became a Certified Digital Educator then transferred to complete my MBA.  Relevant coursework: Quantitative Statistical Analysis, Multivariate Analysis, Cost Volume Profit Analysis

I am a passionate leader in Information Technology.   My focus is managing projects while combining programming, SQL skills, and the best practices to deliver information solutions to improve productivity.  I have been employed with Port Arthur Independent School District for five years. I have over 10 years of experience as a Programmer Analyst.  I plan, design and coordinate systems integration across 17 campuses. I serve as a liaison for various departments by performing system analysis, solutions and programming in line with business and academic needs. I have knowledge of SQL and Oracle Database 11 and 12c.

I attended the TCEA (Texas Computer Education Association) conference in Austin.  I continued to keep the students in my classroom motivated and introduced them to Oracle.  I went to the Oracle downloads website and downloaded the database software to each computer in my lab. I utilized lessons that went with the database, (Introduction to Oracle9i: SQL). Connecting to the Oracle Database provided the students with a  real-world experience.
