My journey began in the computer industry in 1983 as a technician at a store selling Apple, IBM, Texas Instruments, and Compaq computers. After earning my degree from DeVry Institute of Technology in 1985, I shifted my focus in 1993 to working with individuals experiencing vision loss, developing personalized solutions to improve their quality of life.
