  Secure Computing

  Jan 1996 - Jan 2006

  Initially started as a DB entry role, but I needed functionality built so I asked for administrative access and the administrators guide and built better functionality for Customer Support. This role grew exponentially after that. Much of what people see today at Secure in the form of Remedy application software is still pretty much what I created during this time frame. The basic design of the forms, the active links or filters will have a lot of my user name attached to the functionality of what Secure uses today. Show less
