I am a 30 year old guy from Pittsburgh, PA.  I was born and raised in Leechburg, PA, and now that I'm married with four kids I'm living in Irwin, PA, all of which is less than an hour outside Pittsburgh.  I went to Pitt for my BS in electrical engineering (1994-1998) and continued there for my MS in EE as well (1998-1999).

My first job was with INTEG process group, located in Wexford, PA, mainly contracting to various companies through them.  Through INTEG I worked mainly at Adtranz, which was bought by Bombardier Transportation.  I started at BT full time in 2004 for a year, then went to Medrad (a medical company) for a year, only to return to BT in early 2006.
