about "me"

Hi, My name is Terry Boone and this is my emerging technology blog. First I would like to thank everyone who's visiting and encourage everyone who participates. Let me share some background information about myself. I am from a small town in North Carolina named Enfield, where I graduated from the local high school. From there I matriculated to N.C. A&T State University, then transferred to UNC-Charlotte where I obtained my degree in Criminal Justice. Then moving to Atlanta, Ga. I worked for a airline catering service, specifically catering international flights out of Hartsfield Airport, but the area I have worked the most would be in automobile manufacturing where I was involved in rear seat building primarily as a employee of Lear Corporation, a first tier supplier for Ford Motor Company. I was able to make a good living, and even invest in a few houses for supplemental income, but in 2006 Ford shut down its Atlanta operations putting thousands out of work.Upon moving back to North Carolina, I entered Edgecombe Community College to pursue a skill set in computers and information technology. I am interested in a computer career, but also in making technology useful to those of us that are not technically proficient, so as you post, keep this in mind. The learning experience is better served by bridges rather than fences.
