About Me as a Job Applicant:

I am one clas shy of graduation from UWM with a BS in Information Resources from the School of Information Studies. with a 3.269 GPA.

I love being part of a team helping people. I like to learn. I want to learn more about animation, Drupal, Spanish, Dreamweaver, PHP, and all sciences and technology. I am very skilled at online research and am familiar with the entire range of most computer user habits at all skill levels. I want to help make the information economy more accessible, freindly, knowledgeable, and diverse. Anything you do, can be done meta. Whatever you need done, I can learn about it, and how to research it, and find a way to make it easier to learn or do.

I am particularly interested in organizations, goods, and services that benefit the common good, particularly those marginalized by historical structures of institutions and culture. I like people, and I like working with, and serving, others.

I am always interested to know more about the overarching conceptual structure of knowledge, the development of new theories and methods for seeking better tools and paradigms to organize our understandings and our efforts. The development of theory, spirit, and paradigm, are of great interest to me, as is also the development of new toolage and method, how we each use these, and how they could be better understood, organized, or made available to create ease of use, productivity, and consensus. I enjoy learning new information, concepts, and skills, particularly using these to improve methods of learning and creating, to make any part of it all easier and more fun to use and share, for more and more people, to the benefit of all.

I hope to start a new career in enabling social, environmental, and/or information systems work. I would like to be learning more about Drupal, Spanish, LINUX and Chinese, and have begun working more in PHP and Macromedia. I have always loved painting and design, and I am working on a freeware project CD/site to enable free self help for Windows users. I have learned to love creating tutorials on rudimentary use of programming, web design, and self help, and have recently graduated my tech support skills to pro, as I'm at the point where it is not just bailing out those who love me, but also those nice people who I only know because paid me to come over and fix problems and explain how to avoid them.

No matter where my career may go, it is very likely that many of these pursuits will continue only on my own time. The information I find most interesting is inevitably that which I am using the most. It would be great if any of my recent interests were a good fit for my new career, but the career I really seek is one helping empower and bring together people and/or other beings with information. My

Breif History:

Soon after high school, I joined the National Guard, to train as a medical laboratory technician, and get help for paying for UW. I should have known, Army financing made it even harder to pay for school at UW. After working at many tasks, I eventually became an injection mold setup technician in the 90's, and then a bartender, but my needs to create value, learn, share, and be creative, were not at all met by either task. My job as a wastewater floatation seperation technician had taught me the feeling of creating real social and environmental value, as a bartender I could enjoy the sharing of information, services, and goods, but neither kind of work satisfied my deep seated need to inquire, learn, teach, and share information, knowledge, and wisdom. Eventually I was able to go back to UWM with help from my family, and am now about to graduate from UWM SOIS, with a BSIR.

My Degree:

My studies have attempted to cover the breadth of the development and structure of understanding generally and the way different approaches and understandings can come together to further our vision of ourselves, our surroundings, and the constraints of the material and social world, about as well as an undergraduate degree may. I am especially interested in which of these are things we can change for the better, and how would it make best sense to do so. I have remained somewhat weak in math, programming, languges, and business, much of what i know about science and art is self taught, but I have studied each of these enough to augment my core competancy, which is how these are all connected in their past, future, and current development.

My Culture:

The national cultures I have the most respect for are those of Americas' first nations and the Chinese nations. Tibetian, south Asian, and African nation cultures also inspire me a great deal. I feel I am an internationalist, even though I really only know english, and have never really left the US. I feel meta to our culture, I am native to none, and to all.

My Religion:

I have few spiritual convictions, but those I have are deeply considered, and constitute my own religion of one member, seeking unity with All. I believe Allness composes us all, the unity of all is the most powerful fact of existance, as obvious as is the liberty of the one, in all our multiple forms of interdependance.

I do not believe in the divisions some make between the spiritual and the material, nor those between sentience and material; wisdom, the All, the one, the information, the emotion, the sprit, the rays, particles, and feilds composed of space and time, are all one unified whole, and are each composed of all the others.

I feel the opposite of good is not evil, but stupid, and that we are each free to define good, especially as it strengthens the good of all, and fits within a reasonably consensual mindframe. The divisions humans make between peoples and beings is not good, like the idea of evil, there may well have been a time when it served the reverance and health of the diversity of the All, and all the people, but it is no longer. I deny all divisions between any one as illusion, and seek the underlying themes of being creation, to me the spirit of Allness is the penultimate state and authority.

Yet I am at core a materialist, I feel that all these peices have the same authority of existance, and are all composed of the same degree of veracity and illusion, the particle, the ray, the feild, the spirit, the love, the beauty, the information, the knowledge, the wisdom, the motion, the stillness, all composed of each other in one grand pageant of dance, being, work, song, life, and growth. Gravity is God's Love, keeping us from the cold unlife of thin space, but only just. We must each and every one struggle towards the collective end, whether we can see the beauty of the purpose or not, whether we percieve success, or not, we are all in the act of composing the Allness, the one, or the feedback among every.

This is your after-death, all things, here, now, always. Whether or not she that transcends and embodies all space and time has yet to fully evolve, when she does, she'll be here now, and we each will be a part of her being becoming. Our Earthmother needs us now to ensure she can sustain us. If we cannot, she will still go on to evolve towards blooming the love, light, and organization of life's continuing evolution of complexity across our galaxy. Even a major asteroid, or the unpostponeable red giant our sun will become, may only delay and spread her, spreading her seeds to a new fertile bearth.

My Philosophy:

We must be ready to love and act with great courage to out evolve human consequences.
