Introduction

After graduating from Texas A&M with a BS in Mechanical Engineering, I went to work in the power generation industry. I left my job as a mechanical engineer for a nuclear power plant in a rapid-response team to move to Saigon. I also have an MBA with a concentration in International Business.

I joined expat.com on 13 May 2013.

Interests playing music
