I have a BS in Computer Science, member of the National Computer Science Honor Society, Upsilon Pi Epsilon. I'm from the great state of Georgia (USA) and currently work as a Security Analyst. I have seti running on my work and home computer and pretty much just like to compete with my co-workers to see who can crank out the most work units.
