I was graduated from Purdue University in Industrial Engineering and from George Washington University with a masters degree in Industrial Administration.

My son and I started the first Internet Service Provider business in Halifax County, Virginia, in 1995. I focused on providing Web pages of local interest with the majority being related to local history. http://www.oldhalifax.com/county/historic.htm

Having retired several years ago I became involved with the local historical society's creation of a permanent, interpretive exhibit focusing on Nathanael Greene's retreat, race, and crossing of the Dan River here in Halifax County, Virginia. Although not a history educator, I have researched the subject for the past 3 years. The exhibit should be getting its remaining funding shortly with a grand opening slated for early 2008. http://www.prizery.com/RacetotheDan/Exhibit.htm#exhibit
